In My Father's Footsteps: A Walk from Hell to Paradise Book

"Explorer Clayton Klein spent many days walking the state of Michigan. Into his 90s, he regularly logged over 1,500 miles each year. To raise awareness and funds for Hospice, he trekked from Paradise in the Upper Peninsula to Hell in Southeastern Michigan each September.

His daughter and fellow adventurer Debbie Klein accompanied Clate on many of his expeditions. Together they canoed above the Arctic Circle and through the Everglades, backpacked the Lake Superior shore, and walked the country roads and rustic trails of rural Michigan. Deb also charted her own path on a bicycle, pedaling throughout Michigan and across the United States.

Join Deb as she shares these adventures with delight and humor, culminating in her own walk from Hell to Paradise. She shares descriptions of wildlife encounters, the serenity of exploring Michigan on foot, and the exceptional kindness and generosity of the friends she met along the journey. This is the story of an audacious goal set and accomplished, and a heartwarming tale of the extraordinary bond between father and daughter."
