American Nomads: Travels with Lost Conquistadors, Mountain Men, Cowboys, Indians, Hoboes, Truckers, and Bullriders by Richard Grant

5.0

I am not a conquistador, nor am I a mountain man. Or a cowboy or Indian, for that matter. Not even a hobo, believe it or not, and though I am the son of a trucker I am not one. I'm also not a bulldrider, though I do watch it on TV sometimes.

Even with all of that against me, I still loved this book and the unique description of every type of nomad from the last few hundred years. America truly is a nomans land. I hope to actually discover it someday, in all the same ways as the author of this book, Richard Grant. Except I don't really want to ride in a rail car.
