A terrific story and the wonderful feeling of traveling "the mother road" in the later 50's. Having traveled that road from the East coast to Los Angeles myself in 1960 (although I was 12) I still recognized many names of towns and motor courts in the book. Brought back great memories and wondering if there are still Burma Shave ads painted on red barns along the way.
