The author of White Fang, The Call of the Wild, and Sea Wolf, relays the time leading up to turning point in his life – a perfunctory trial and a 30-day imprisonment in the Erie County Penitentiary for the crime of vagrancy – an experience so degrading that he turned to a career in writing. This tale of rugged individualism influenced Jack Kerouac and inspired his tale, On the Road. Simultaneously autobiographical and instructional, The Road wryly presents a way of life that embodies wanderlust and the soul’s search for true freedom.
