Sample Book Insights: #1 When the virus of restlessness begins to take possession of a wayward man, and the road away from Here seems broad and straight, he must first find a good and sufficient reason for going. Then he must plan his trip in time and space, choose a direction and a destination. #2 I wanted to travel and see the country again, so I wrote to the head office of a great corporation that manufacture trucks. I wanted a three-quarter-ton pick-up truck, capable of going anywhere under possibly rigorous conditions, and I wanted a little house built like the cabin of a small boat. #3 The best way to attract attention, help, and conversation is to be lost. A man who sees his mother starving to death on a path will cheerfully give wrong directions to a stranger who claims to be lost. #4 I knew that I would not be able to write hot on an event, so I prepared for a week of emergency. I took writing material and dictionaries, encyclopedias, and reference books. I knew I would never get around to reading them.
