There were no well-charted road maps full of information about route numbers, rest stops, motels, and restaurants. Instead, a handy map might tell you which fork in the road to take or when to follow the railroad tracks. Motorists were mostly on their own. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is in this era that brothers Jim and Bill Kackeison set off on the adventure of a lifetime. With only their compass to guide them, the two planned on driving from New York State to San Francisco, California. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring the following expedition, their plans would change several times. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two young men encountered wolves and mountain lions in the miles of wilderness in the heart of America. At the same time, they met compassionate people who were always ready to lend helping hands. A lack of money and sickness eventually stopped them and forced them to change their route, but Jim and Bill were determined to enjoy everything the trip had to offer. In return for their bravery and sense of adventure, they were given glimpses into the lives of Americans all over the country at a time when life was changing drastically for everyone \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11477876\"\u003eJim Kackeison\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-8615955\"\u003eJames Burdick\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/09\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 62\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.00w x 0.13d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781977567253\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1977567258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-TRV\"\u003eTravel\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-TRV025110\"\u003eUnited States | West | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Burdick is an retired minister and educator who splits his time between summers in Kentucky and winters in Florida.
