Interesting review of American culture during the 60's. Fun at times to compare/contrast it with current culture. I found myself caring more about the dog than the country, though...

This book will make you think. Steinbeck packs up his dog, Charley, and together they set out from NY to CA "in search of America". He's very introspective of his own life and of his fellow Americans as he journeys along local roads, avoiding freeways if at all possible, because he feels he will miss too much of the local life otherwise. He connects with the locals, and as the book progresses, seems to understand himself more. While he's very detailed, it's not at all boring. Definitely one to read.

It was very interesting to read about a journey that started a month before my birth but held many truths that still apply. I thoroughly enjoyed his turn of a phrase.
