Customer Reviews

The perfect traveling companion.

The image of the transcontinental train trip conveys both the glamour and the grit of American lore, and amazingly, the reality is available to all of us -- as close as the nearest Amtrak station. Terry Pindell is more forgiving than many of the frustrations of the current US passenger system, but he is a poet at heart, and never fails to see the forces of history through his sometimes dirty train window. He is the perfect traveling companion.
