Expressing his own lifelong urge to be somewhere else, Steinbeck commented, "A journey is a person in itself: no two are alike." And so a collection of stories about journeys to many places in many periods of time, from the early thrusts of exploration to the swift trips along sign-posted highways, should offer companionship as varied and provocative as the well-traveled authors themselves.

Includes stories by Joan Didion, Washington Irving, Jack Kerouac, Jack London, Mari Sandoz, John Steinbeck, Roubert Louis Stevenson, Henry David Thoreau, Anthony Trollope, Mark Twain, E.B. White, Margaret Atwood, Albert Camus, and Evelyn Waugh.

To be left at the OBCZ in Lincoln 1/5/07!

Enjoy!
