Summary

On the cusp of turning 65, Zheutlin and his beloved rescue dog of similar vintage take a poignant, often bemusing, and keenly observed journey across America and discover a big-hearted, welcoming country. Inspired by John Steinbeck's Travels with Charley, Zheutlin set out on a 9,000-mile odyssey with Albie to experience America. They found memorable characters, a new-found appreciation for the life they temporarily left behind, and a determination to live more fully in the moment as old age looms. -- adapted from jacket
