TRAVELS WITH CHARLEY (PENGUIN MODERN CLASSICS)

In 1960, John Steinbeck set out in his pick-up truck with his dog Charley to rediscover and chronicle his native USA, from Maine to California. His 10,000-mile journey took him through almost forty states, where he saw things that made him proud, angry, sympathetic, and elated. A rugged and passionate adventure of self-identity, Steinbeck's vision of the changing world still speaks to us prophetically through the decades.
