520    An intimate journey across and in search of America, as 
       told by one of its most beloved writers, in a deluxe 
       centennial edition   In September 1960, John Steinbeck 
       embarked on a journey across America. He felt that he 
       might have lost touch with the country, with its speech, 
       the smell of its grass and trees, its color and quality of
       light, the pulse of its people. To reassure himself, he 
       set out on a voyage of rediscovery of the American 
       identity, accompanied by a distinguished French poodle 
       named Charley; and riding in a three-quarter-ton pickup 
       truck named Rocinante.  andamp;#160;  His course took him 
       through almost forty states: northward from Long Island to
       Maine; through the Midwest to Chicago; onward by way of 
       Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana (with which he fell in 
       love), and Idaho to Seattle, south to San Francisco and 
       his birthplace, Salinas; eastward through the Mojave, New 
       Mexico, Arizona, to the vast hospitality of Texas, to New 
       Orleans and a shocking drama of desegregation; finally, on
       the last leg, through Alabama, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and
       New Jersey to New York.  andamp;#160;   Travels with 
       Charley in Search of America  is an intimate look at one 
       of America's most beloved writers in the later years of 
       his life—a self-portrait of a man who never wrote an
       explicit autobiography. Written during a time of upheaval 
       and racial tension in the South—which Steinbeck 
       witnessed firsthand— Travels with Charley  is a 
       stunning evocation of America on the eve of a tumultuous 
       decade. This Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition also features
       French flaps and deckle-edged paper. For more than sixty-
