The fifth book from Best-Selling Amazon author Keith Foskett.
Keith Foskett adores the outdoors and is addicted to thru-hiking. A veteran of El Camino de Santiago in Spain, the Pacific Crest and Appalachian Trails, he follows a different lifestyle. Adventure and chasing dreams come first, convention and acceptance are second.
In this book he shares a collection of trips, thoughts and observations from his award-winning blog. From the extremes of the New Mexico wilderness to his beloved South Downs in England, he observes the world with clarity, hope, daydreams and humour.
With tales of local history, the changing of the seasons, facing death and pursuing his chosen path, this is a glimpse into one man's unfaltering passion to follow his dreams.
'Keith is a perfect walking companion for the ups and downs of the trail - his easy and understated style kept me turning the pages. Essential reading for those contemplating their own big adventure.'
- David Lintern (Editor - Outdoor Enthusiast Magazine) - Reviewing Balancing on Blue.
'Keith invites you to the world that he calls home. Be prepared for great storytelling, unique and interesting characters, humour and insight.'
- Andrew Skurka (Long-distance hiker, adventurer and National Geographic Adventurer of the Year 2007) - Reviewing Balancing on Blue.
Keith Foskett has hiked over 12,000 miles in recent years and holds a deep respect for our outdoor spaces.
He has written several Amazon best-selling books and contributes to various outdoor publications. Two of his books have been short-listed for outdoor book of the year by The Great Outdoors magazine, and his blog was voted outdoor blog of the year by the Go Outdoors group.
Partial to a decent bottle of Rioja, he nurtures an unhealthy interest in down sleeping bags and woollen underwear.
He was born and still lives in south-east England.
