Who Are These Guys?

Avid backpackers and campers, Victoria and Frank Logue wrote their first book, The Appalachian Trail Backpacker, to share many tips and techniques they had picked up in the backcountry. Since then, the Logues have written a number of other books, all known for their straightforward advice, with numerous anecdotes from their own experiences and those of their fellow outdoor enthusiasts.

The Logues have supplied writing and photography to a number of regional and national magazines including Outdoor Traveler and Backpacker. They have appeared on CNN and numerous local TV and talk radio shows. The Logues were also guests on the Discovery Channel's series, “Go For It.” For more than two years, the Logues hosted a weekly online chat on long distance hiking for Backpacker magazine.

Frank served for four years as a member of the Appalachian Trail Conference's Board of Managers (through July 1999) and as a member of the ATC's Publications Committee for eight years. Frank graduated from Virginia Theological Seminary in May of 2000 with a Master of Divinity. He was ordained a deacon in the Episcopal Church in February of 2000 and to the priesthood in August of that year. Frank is currently working as the pastor of King of Peace Episcopal Church (on the web at www.kingofpeace.org).

Victoria is the editor of Georgia's Coastal Illustrated, a bi-weekly newspaper which covers arts, entertainment and events on St. Simon's Island, Sea Island and Jekyll Island. She has continues to write and keep books up to date, while Frank's writing is mostly sermons and a religion column for the Tribune & Georgian.

In their free time, they continue to enjoy sharing their love of the outdoors with their fifteen-year old daughter Griffin. She is the webmaster of the award-winning PlanetAnimals.com. Griffin also enjoys writing, acting and travel.
