Description
In a rare autobiographical work, the beloved "cracker-barrel philosopher" shares his experiences on the roads he drove during two voyages from New York to his beloved Taos - in 1925, and again in 1960. Sloane offers his wry, heartfelt, and incisive reflections on America's rapidly changing landscapes and regional cultures.
