520 "The Emmy-winning CBS Sunday Morning correspondent
chronicles his year traveling to every one of our National
Parks, discovering the most beautiful places and most
interesting people that America has to offer. When Conor
Knighton decided to spend a year wandering through
America's "best idea," he was worried the whole thing
might end up being his worst idea. But after a broken
engagement and a broken heart, Conor desperately needed a
change of scenery. The ambitious plan he cooked up went a
bit overboard in that department; Knighton set out to
visit every single one of America's National Parks, from
Acadia to Zion. Leave Only Footprints is the memoir of his
year spent traveling across the United States, a journey
that yielded his "On the Trail" series, which quickly
became one of CBS Sunday Morning's most beloved segments.
In this smart, informative, and entertaining book, he
shares how his journey through these natural wonders ended
up changing his worldview on everything from God and love
to politics and technology. Whether he's waking up early
for a naked scrub in a historic bathhouse or staying up
late to stargaze along our loneliest highway, Knighton
goes behind the scenery to provide an unfiltered look at
our country. In doing so, he reveals the unforgettable
stories behind the often beautiful, always fascinating
lands that all Americans share"--|cProvided by publisher.
