《野蠻人徒步日記：阿帕拉契山徑90天》，一趟超乎想像的旅程，一本忠實的紀錄，一場細膩的思索，關於路，關於人，關於路與人，以及人與人。 一定有個渴望極限的「野蠻人」住在SAVAGE體內，鼓動他從喬治亞州走到緬因州。95天，3,500公里（2,200英里），日均36公里（22英里）。最狂紀錄日行63公里（39英里），16小時，86,000步，相當於南港火車站出發經5號國道直抵蘇澳。SAVAGE的內心一定有一個想挑戰自我極限的靈魂，他說費腦力的事他不會，費體力的倒是很在行。一個在紐約討生活的台灣人，被一個打算挑戰年度徒步三冠王（CYTC）的美國人封為SAVAGE（步道名），究竟是一個怎樣的「野蠻人」？阿帕拉契山徑（AT, Appalachian Trail）、大陸分水嶺步道（CDT, Continental Divide Trail）與太平洋屋脊步道（PCT, Pacific Crest Trail），是三條知名的長程步道，縱貫美國南北，分處美國東、中、西部。阿帕拉契山徑穿越14州、2座國家公園、8座國家森林，「是一條面貌猙獰的步道，比起PCT（太平洋屋脊步道）、CDT（大陸分水嶺步道），算得上是『無景』的長步道。但幾乎所有徒步者走完阿帕拉契山徑之後，都有種難以形容的惆悵感。……像是母性的存在，包容一切情感，療癒傷痛。」（本書作者語）從AT南端點喬治亞州施普林格山（Mt. Springer）出發後第16天，本書作者「獲封」SAVAGE（步道名）。第95天，SAVAGE抵達終點緬因州卡塔丁山（Mt. Katahdin），結束漫長的山野之旅，帶著「野蠻人」回家。 本書特色 離家三月，隻身獨走，雨雪烈日風霜飢寒虐身灼心，上山下谷，野壯的體魄，自虐式跋涉，北行縱貫美東十四州。旅美台灣人SAVAGE超狂獨旅，挑戰美國三大超長步道之一阿帕拉契山徑（Appalachian Trail）。 雲門舞集創辦人 林懷民 作家、千里步道運動發起人小野作家、 自然觀察者 劉克襄 千里步道協會執行長周聖心 ——真情推薦
