- Summary:
- Road Trips, Head Trips, and Other Car-Crazed Writings is a delightfully eclectic look at all things automotive. Including fiction, journalism, and poetry, it offers such classic voices as Ernest Hemingway during his newspaper days, John Steinbeck and his search for America (accomplished by his French poodle, Charley), and the wonderfully witty S. J. Perelman, whose letter to the neighbors tells of a disastrous cross-country voyage by car to California.
