Following Atticus : forty-eight high peaks, one little dog, and an extraordinary friendship/Tom Ryan/276 pgs

I had heard about this story and wanted to read the book and am very glad I did. This is a very good book. It is the true story of an amazing dog and his owner. It takes place in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Tom Ryan gets a puppy and they discover a love of the mountains and hiking. When a friend is diagnosed with cancer, Tom decides that they are going to hike all 48 4000 ft plus peaks twice during the winter. I have hiked some of those mountains in the summer and cannot imagine trying to do it in the winter forget about trying to do it twice.
