As a new RV owner, and long distance hopeful, I was really looking forward to reading this book. Unfortunately, the author chose to make it a political statement from his liberal viewpoint. It is obvious that he disrespects southerners and Christians, and found it hard to understand our conservative views. It would have been a much better book if he had focused only on his travel experience. I also thought leaving the dogs in the back of his truck was weird. I picked it up several times, only to put it back down after 10 or 15 pages - I only got 1/3 of it read but had no hope that it would improve. I will donate to our local library in my conservative little southern town, maybe someone will enjoy it but I did not.
This is a travelogue of America, and there are not very many, with very interesting stories of the places and the people Phil Caputo experiences traveling across the USA from Key West, Florida to Dead Horse, Alaska above the Arctic Circle. Caputo is a skilled professional writer and hecan observe and describe the cultures in a way most of us would miss if we took the same trip. The United States is a large country with cultures as diverse as the landscape and you then realize the unique land and culture we have here. Being a journalist Phil Caputo has the gift of talking, experiencing, and communicating with everyone he meets. That skill, along with a bit of history thrown in, is what makes this book great.Every American should read it. You will not be sorry.
Road-trips, I really like road-trips, whether it is to Sonoita, Arizona, for a Saturday night or as my wife and I did this past July drive to eight states. It is a great feeling awaking in Deadwood, South Dakota, and wondering where we shall drive to today. As such it was with excitement when Philip Caputo’s new book “The Longest Road†was released, as perhaps he and his wife Leslie Ware completed the ultimate road-trip.Phil is an author I have long admired. I still remember reading his epic memoir “A Rumor of War†when I returned home from Vietnam, which remains the work that most, defines that war. I have enjoyed all 15 of his books and also have a special appreciation for his “Acts of Faith†and more recently “Crossersâ€.Phil and Leslie begin their ultimate road-trip driving 8300 miles from the southernmost point in the United States (Key West, Florida) to the northernmost point at Deadhorse, Alaska. They were accompanied by their two English setters Sage and Sky and traveled with an old 1962 Airstream. Phil has felt America in recent years was growing in anger and division and he simply wanted to discover what is holding people together if anything.The journey was enjoyable reading, not just for the places they visited, but the stories of the people they met. They tended to avoid the interstates and large cities so primarily the travel was through a kinder and gentler nation. He mixes humor throughout the story, especially describing various episodes of exchanges between his wife Leslie and himself. When one is married to a Leslie (which I also am) you know the road traveled will never be dull.I am not sure if Phil really discovered the reason of anger in America or what is keeping people together, although I do know that when I finished this book I felt good and I felt happy.
I liked this book and recommend it to any one interested in travelogues. However, it is more than that, because the author is so good at interviewing that you get to meet and converse with so many folks across the country. It is as if each person is to be a remembrance of the location in which the author finds him.I used my iPad map with my Kindle to follow in detail the trip. It was a great assist, because, for the most part, they were not traveling the interstates.There were many highlights for me and my interests. Fort Clatsop, the turbine farm, Key West, and the Black Hils are among them. Generally, each area is highlighted as a physical presence and the interviews personalize them, with a bit of history to cement it.He is an excellent writer, of course, so his prose is easy to understand, yet thought provoking. It was one of those books which causes you to pause after certain chapters to digest what you just learned. And, for me, there was much learning and many pauses. Not a burden, though, and I hated to see the trip end.As to his politics coloring his commentary. He and I are contemporaries. How anyone who served in `Nam could imagine centralized decision making as better than decentralized is difficult to understand. That said, his conclusive remarks concerning the yin-yang of the USA, Jefferson v. Hamilton, is spot on.It is a worthwhile read, deserving of one's time and concentration. I find these journey books especially fun during long Midwest winters.After reading this book, I'm less inclined to reread Kerouac or Steinbeck and more inclined to reread and rethink Tocqueville.
I loved this book. I read it while on a journey myself and appreciated so much of what Caputo experienced. I've been to a lot of the same places he writes about. He not only gives a great picture of the beauty of America, it's vastness and many variations of cultures, topography, and scenic byways but he has sensitive conversations with the people he meets and their struggles and successes in life with wherever they've chose to set down roots. He discusses the trials of traveling with dogs, mechanical breakdowns, and just going with whatever comes your way. Plus he's a great writer. Similar to Travels with Charley/John Steinbeck but modernized. Highly recommend.
