It was June 15, Liz Frances's fifty–fifth birthday, and only five years behind on her life's plan, when she took her first step onto the Appalachian Trail. Leaving behind her two sons, her "other," Dan, and the rest of her family with the exception for her closest, canine companion, Liz embarks on a journey where she finds a connection with a sycamore tree, a man she wished she had met years sooner, and ultimately rediscovers her roots.Liz had always managed to put herself on the most difficult path, sometimes jumping into the fire before knowing just how hot it would be. Haunted by her failures and disappointments-from a father who was never satisfied to an abusive ex–husband who drained every ounce of love she had to give-Liz fights through her stubborn pride and learns to lean on those around her, sometimes quite literally. As she hikes her way into new perspectives on life, love, and loss, Liz is absorbed by her trail identity as Sycamore.
The Trail of Been is based on real–life events that draw from the author's own life's experiences and walk through every fear and emotion that thousands of women have traveled through. Much like Wild, A Walk in the Woods, and even Bridges of Madison County, Trail of Been conveys the perseverance of one faced with difficult challenges and choices in life, finding strength and, ultimately, peace in life's journey.
