Compare Uneasy Rider by Mike Bryan, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In this offbeat and original road book, Mike Bryan, a maverick author and traveler, takes issue with the traditional notion that the "real" America is to be found on our backroads and byways. The real America, he argues, exists right out in the open on the interstates, and he travels 1700 miles from Texas to California to discover it. Bryan visits a "no smoking ranch", chats with state troopers, conspiracy theorists, and casino dealers, meets the elusive novelist Cormac McCarthy and gubernatorial candidate turned snake rancher Royce X. Owens. In the process he discovers that the interstates, far from producing the homogeneous society he had feared, nourish a rich community of eccentrics - and that ultimately there is no such thing as an "ordinary American". | Uneasy Rider by Mike Bryan, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
