The Journey Home

A collection of essays on the American West covers such issues as urban growth, the gentrification of the small-town West, and wilderness preservation.

First sentence: In the summer of 1944, the year before the year I fell in love, I hitchhiked from Pennsylvania to Seattle by way of Chicago and Yellowstone National Park: from Seattle down the coast to San Francisco; and from there by way of Barstow and Needles via boxcar, thumb, and bus through the Southwest back home to the old farm, three months later.
