Travels with Charley in Search of America by John Steinbeck ISBN 0142000701

Travels with Charley in Search of America by John Steinbeck, ISBN 0142000701

Steinbeck records his emotions and experiences during a journey of rediscovery in his native land....In September 1960, John Steinbeck and his poodle, Charley, embarked on a journey across America. A picaresque tale, this chronicle of their trip meanders along scenic backroads and speeds along anonymous superhighways, moving from small towns to growing cities to glorious wilderness oases. Travels with Charley is animated by Steinbeck's attention to the specific details of the natural world and his sense of how the lives of people are intimately connected to the rhythms of nature - to weather, geography, the cycles of the seasons. His keen ear for the transactions among people is evident, too, as he records the interests and obsessions that preoccupy the Americans he encounters along the way....
