”It's always amazed me how the Logues follow the ever-changing contexts of Appalachian Trail hiking and write about it clearly and comprehensibly. A great preparation for any adventure on foot!”—Brian B. King, Director of Public Affairs, ATC

Victoria and Frank Logue hiked the entire Appalachian Trail in 1988. They have returned again and again to hike it in its many parts on day and overnight hikes. Frank served on the Appalachian Trail Conservancy Board of Managers. The Logues were also selected as honorary life members of the Appalachian Long-Distance Hikers Association in 2003. They are the authors of “The Best of The Appalachian Trail: Day Hikes,” “The Best of the Appalachian Trail: Overnight Hikes,” and the “Appalachian Trail Fun Book,” among other books. Victoria Logue is the author of “Hiking and Backpacking: Essential Skills to Advanced Techniques.” The Logues live in Georgia, where Frank works as an Episcopal priest while Victoria writes, and they enjoy sharing their love of nature with their daughter, Griffin.
