Tom Alyea

Tom Alyea, is an avid walker, hiker and author of numerous books, guidebooks, and journals. He spends most of his time walking across the United States and around the world finding ways that he can rediscover a new life on the trail and motivate others to do the same. His Wandering Walks of Wonder Guidebooks allow tourists, visitors, and residents of cities to get out and explore areas not normally seen by the average person. His books highlight historical homes, buildings, churches, and other important sites - many times missed by people if they just stay in the "tourist" areas. Dozens of stops are highlighted on these guidebooks where people will learn more about the town and its famous residents. Walk directions and maps are provided to ensure a fun experience. Beautiful photos are included that enhance the experience. These guidebooks allows for great photo-taking opportunities, for people to walk at their own pace, and explore off of the beaten path. Tom is also a member of the only national walking club in the U.S. – The American Volkssport Association
