In this entertaining volume, you'll find Governor General
Award-winner Margaret Avison and American sci-fi novelist Piers
Anthony rubbing shoulders with Blag Dahlia and Ben Bachelder.
You'll read of Jello Biafra's encounter with shoe-eating cows, Alan
Dean Foster's ride on a whale shark, and Kage Baker's hilarious
account of actors broken down on Interstate 5. Filmmakers,
politicians, stand-up comedians, poets, journalists, and carpenters
all come together through the shared experience of hitching a ride.
Throughout the '60s and '70s -- the heyday of hitchhiking -- this
form of travel was a key means of transportation. Today, people
continue to hitchhike all over the world. Money never changes
hands, but all manner of social transactions take place. Hilarious,
sad, nostalgic, sometimes scary, and always entertaining, these
travelers' tales will open your eyes and take you back -- or
forward. Just when you think you've heard it all, turn the page.
You'll discover you haven't!
