An intimate journey across America, as told by one of its most beloved writers A Penguin Classic 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. 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. 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.

Charley Alcott has always lived in the shadow of his older brother John. Compared to the handsome John, Charley was soft spoken, average looking and most likely to be ignored by people. But Charley was about to embark on a life-changing journey that would take him back to Charley’s Lake. Readers can follow him in this fascinating novel by Art Zahn. Brother John was taller than Charley and quite handsome. He was outgoing, suave, and shrewd—a carbon copy of their mother, Claire. He was clearly Claire’s favorite while Charley was the often-neglected second. Charley never understood his mother’s cold treatment of him, but it left him feeling insecure despite his achievements. The only place that he truly felt welcome was Lake Charles, which he has fondly nicknamed Charley’s Lake. When Charley became a lawyer, he was given a position with the prestigious law fi rm, Penicutt, Black, Rivers, and Penicutt. Due to his timidity, he was given menial tasks for three years. A rare chance in the courtroom resulted in a blunder, which sent Charley into the claims department of family owned Vesuvius Insurance Company. Claire and John had no idea what surprises were in store for them with this change. And at age twenty-eight, Charley Alcott decided he would search for his true identity. Will he fi nd the answers he is looking for in his haven, at Charley’s Lake? Readers can fi nd out as they follow his metamorphosis in this captivating read.
