Gone to Look for America
Description
Gone to Look for America is a lyrical, offbeat travel memoir of the USA - a modern American road trip told through stories, songs, and encounters with the wild, the weird, and the quietly profound.
Travelling from the Appalachian mountains to Nashville, New Mexico and New Orleans, psychologist and songwriter Steve Bonham digs beneath the headlines to explore the American dream, the pull of freedom, and the urge for reinvention. Along the way he meets musicians, outliers, small-town characters and landscapes that reveal a deeper, more human America.
Part cultural exploration, part travelogue, part love letter to contemporary Americana, this is a reflective work of narrative non-fiction about myth, music, self-reliance and belonging - written for anyone drawn to the open road and the stories it carries.
Where the stories are wild - and the truth walks beside you.
