Perfect For A Weekend Mind Getaway

Having grown up with the author, I eagerly awaited the arrival of his book having ordered it after catching up him at our 20th high school reunion. It arrived in the mail early Saturday and I vegged out by the pool devouring each and every page. Putting it in the context of a newly minted college graduate hitchiking with no particular destination in mind it grabs your attention immediately. Tom knew not what his next turn would be and neither does the reader. That's what makes it so darn interesting. There isn't one among us who wouldn't have wanted to take the journey ourselves. Tom was just the rare soul ballsy enough to pull it off.

I found the book compelling and adventorous

I am a seasoned chairman of a profitable food company, I found the book a escape from my routine. It is difficult for any of us to live the adventour Mr. De Titta did across the Country, I have three kids and a wonderful life and I have no desire to hitchike across America. However, through the book I had the opportunity to "virtually escape" my world while still remaining within grasp of my world, my family and my work. Mr. De Titta is a educated well versed graduate of Duke University who decided to live a dream of hitchiking across the Country. You follow him from his home in North Carolina to California and everywere in between. With any type of hitchiking you encounter many interesting and strange people. This book was no exception to this rule but without the lost rebellion I find many adventour books since to focus on, Why cant you be adventourous encounter all kinds of people and events yet still remain with your head on straight. I enjoyed the book, the adventor and the story that seems to be the backdrop of his trip, thats trying to find his relationship with his father. In closing, if you enjoy adventure books without having to drop many points out of your I.Q. you will enjoy this hidden treasure....
