Walking the Trail has been used in classrooms and as a teaching resource by award-winning educators, including James Percoco who is in the National Teachers Hall of Fame.
Reception
The work was well received, with the Los Angeles Times stating that "Jerry Ellis is an ideal companion for a long ramble along the back roads of America, which is precisely what he provides in Walking the Trail, a picaresque account of his trek over the Trail of Tears in commemoration of his Cherokee ancestors and in search of some elusive ideal of freedom and fulfillment."
