Itinerary:

If you haven't heard Jonah McDonald give accounts of his hiking experiences, you're in for a real treat.  Jonah is a dynamic, engaging speaker and story teller who has hiked the entire AT but is now promoting hikes right here in the Atlanta area.  His book, "Hiking Atlanta's Hidden Forests," is a wonderful resource for trip leaders as well as for individuals who want to discover some new trails close to home.  The book provides maps for each hike, a descriptive narrative, and routes to the trailheads. Jonah also highlights prominent "Sentinel" and "Champion" trees at each location. 

The Talls Tale Book Store is hosting Jonah for this book talk on his publication.  Refreshments will be served, and copies of his book will be on sale.  It will be your chance to get a signed copy!

 
Tall Tales Book Shop is located in the Toco Hill Shopping Center at  2015 LaVista Rd. NE, #108, Atlanta, GA 30329
