The backstory on the book is worth a read as well:
…The hours spent bringing the book to publication are enormous. Aside from the cartographer, Allison Werberg and book designer/layout artist, Nora Porter, all others involved in the project are volunteers. Any profits from the sale of Walkable Westchester are a gift from Jane and Walt to the Trail Conference.
