Call this an “educational love story,” if love means never having to say, “Sit down!” or “Play dead!” So, first, take your own dog for a long walk, and then settle in with Running to Duncan’s Field to experience the warmth, love, and strength of the bond between a man and his beloved dog.

Download or read book Roadside Americans written by Jack Reid and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2020-02-14 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the Great Depression and the mid-1970s, hitchhikers were a common sight for motorists, as American service members, students, and adventurers sought out the romance of the road in droves. Beats, hippies, feminists, and civil rights and antiwar activists saw "thumb tripping" as a vehicle for liberation, living out the counterculture's rejection of traditional values. Yet by the time Ronald Reagan, a former hitchhiker himself, was in the White House, the youthful faces on the road chasing the ghost of Jack Kerouac were largely gone—along with sympathetic portrayals of the practice in state legislatures and the media. In Roadside Americans, Jack Reid traces the rise and fall of hitchhiking, offering vivid accounts of life on the road and how the act of soliciting rides from strangers, and the attitude toward hitchhikers in American society, evolved over time in synch with broader economic, political, and cultural shifts. In doing so, Reid offers insight into significant changes in the United States amid the decline of liberalism and the rise of the Reagan Era.
Book Synopsis Hitchhiking in America: Using the Golden Thumb by : Dale Carpenter
Download or read book Hitchhiking in America: Using the Golden Thumb written by Dale Carpenter and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-08-31 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Though it tends to be looked down upon as a trivial activity confined to vagrants, the feeble-minded, sex maniacs and serial killers, hitchhiking needs to be re-valued as a means to an end (transportation and self-education) and as an end in itself (as suggested by Jack London's wonderful paragraphs quoted at the top of p. 35).""This is a source book, not just a casual handbook, and by its appeal to a long tradition it gives hitchhiking well-deserved stature. People have been hitchhiking since the first vehicle - probably a raft - was invented.Odysseus hitchhiked, St. Paul hitchhiked; anyone who hitchhikes today is keeping alive an ancient and honorable tradition and your book will help readers put modern hitchhiking into its particularly American context."Prof. Daniel H. GarrisonDepartment of Classics, Northwestern University -Presenter of a lecture that students refer to as "Hitchhiking as an Art Form."

Book Synopsis Colleen Stan: The Simple Gifts of Life by : Jim B. Green
Download or read book Colleen Stan: The Simple Gifts of Life written by Jim B. Green and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-03-02 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout my captivity, I was never told what was going to happen next or why. This lack of knowledge was used by Master to maintain a continuous element of fear and control over me. Anytime I was taken out of the box, I never knew what to expect. Fear of the unknown was always with me as I was kept in the dark both physically and mentally. This lack of knowledge may have been a good thing in one sense. If I had known the length of my entombment after returning from Riverside, I'm not sure I would have survived. Of course, I'm not sure even Master knew how long he was going to keep me in the box. A few days passed then a few more. Then weeks passed followed by months. Months slowly turned into years. I would spend the next three years of my life (1981-1984) in the box sleeping, dreaming, and praying. I have to assume my lengthy confinement in the box came about because Master was concerned he had given me too much freedom. Maybe he felt he was losing control of his slave. Too many neighbors had seen me, and questions about my status in the Hooker household were surely to arise. A fast thinking family member in Riverside may have copied down his vehicle tag number. What if the police knocked on his door one day looking for Colleen Stan? What if they searched the mobile home? Would anyone think to look under a waterbed for the girl in the box? Master wanted to keep me out of sight until the heat had passed. The other reason for putting me into storage was Ma'am. I'm sure she wanted me out of her life, out of her children's lives, and out of her husband's life. Master was not ready to let his slave go. Cloistering was the only answer. My daily routine soon became predictive as I was allowed out late in the evening after the girls had gone to bed. I emptied my bedpan, drank a large glass of water, and ate cold leftovers in the front bathroom. Sometimes the leftovers were true leftovers that had been out all day and the family didn't want.
Book Synopsis Seven Thousand Miles to Nowhere by : Walt McLaughlin

Book excerpt: During the summer of '76, a disillusioned college boy set aside his books long enough to hitchhike from Ohio to British Columbia and back. A hunger for meaning stirred deep within as he climbed in and out of other people's cars, other people's lives, while dealing with the realities of the open road. Truckers, a philosopher/farmer, cowboys, born-again Christians and hippies all had something more to offer, but the author kept moving through the western American landscape until he reached a dead end. Then the adventure really began. This is a tale of numerous highway encounters and one young man's attempt to make sense of the world in the process.
