Love this book! The first-person experience is a snapshot of one man's perspective of what America was like 50 years ago. Steinbeck takes his dog and Rosinante for a trip around America to find out what it is like today. Funny thing is, this trip could be taken today and some of the same themes would still be issues...some truths never change. Of course, I didn't agree with every point he raised, but tis o.k. I was just along for the ride on his trip. Things can be different when I take mine!
