Cowboy Gasoline

on the road with cowboy gasoline

i'd rather be on the road than anywhere else. the older i get the less i'm out there but it's still where i want to be. by the time jack's book came out in '57 i had already hitch-hiked up & down the east coast about as much as i could stand to and was driving a '51 powder blue pontiac instead. it wasn't on the road that got me on the road, it was some kind of genetic restlessness. a dis-ease i've had my whole life. i just want to go - get far away from where ever i am - be going - be gone. be out there.

when i read about cowboy gasoline, i knew it was just what i needed. a writer decides to move on, loads all his goods into his pick up truck and heads down the hiway - into the eye of the storm.
perfect !

click on the title above to go to mark frauenfelder's article about the book , how to buy a PDF version for $1.50, two reviews (including one by sk) & a free excerpt.

i was just on the road again and now i'm back home reading the on the road scroll.

life is a trip, isn't it?
