Westward Hoboes: Ups and Downs of Frontier Motoring

Winifred Hawkridge Dixon

This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. Dixon drove cross-country with two photographers on a great journey of discovery from Boston to the west coast and back. Rather than a dry travelog, her sense of fun and adventure are obvious in every page. - Summary by LynneT (11 hr 50 min)
