The Stranger in the Woods: The Extraordinary Story of the Last True Hermit by Michael Finkel
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It really is an extraordinary story--27 years in the woods of Maine...and just a few minute's walk away from a bunch of summer lake cabins. Amazing that he went undetected for so long. Finkel does a great job of unraveling the mystery of the hermit of the Maine woods. Sad, sad in places; inspiring in other places. Borrowed from the library.
