A pampered Long Island princess hits the road in a converted bus with her wilderness-loving husband, travels the country for one year, and brings it all hilariously to life in this offbeat and romantic memoir. Doreen and Tim are married psychiatrists with a twist: She’s a self-proclaimed Long Island princess, grouchy couch potato, and shoe addict. He's an affable, though driven, outdoorsman. When Tim suggests “chucking it all” to travel cross-country in a converted bus, Doreen asks, “Why can’t you be like a normal husband in a midlife crisis and have an affair or buy a Corvette?” But she soon shocks them both, agreeing to set forth with their sixty-pound dog, two querulous cats—and no agenda—in a 340-square-foot bus. Queen of the Road is Doreen’s offbeat and romantic tale about refusing to settle, about choosing the unconventional road with all the misadventures it brings (fire, flood, armed robbery, and finding themselves in a nudist RV park, to name just a few). The marvelous places they visit and delightful people they encounter have a life-changing effect on all the travelers, as Doreen grows to appreciate the simple life, Tim mellows, and even the pets pull together. Best of all, readers get to go along for the ride through forty-seven states in this often hilarious and always entertaining memoir, in which a boisterous marriage of polar opposites becomes stronger than ever.

Who wouldn’t cheer for Ryder and Kinley to get together?! The day I left my hometown, I swore I’d never return. I’ve worked hard to build my military career and plan to be a lifer. If it weren’t for the letter left behind by my late mother, Sunset Ridge would’ve stayed in the past where it belonged. My plans to slip into town and stay under the radar while I seek out the identity of my father are quickly derailed when a near-miss with the town’s favorite moose causes me to swerve off the road and crash right into the town sign. Just my luck that the first person to find me is police chief Ryder Grant. The boy who gave me my first kiss is all grown up and not at all amused.

What does it mean to be a westerner? With all the mythology that has grown up about the American West, is it even possible to describe "how it was, how it is, here, in the West—just that," in the words of Lynn Stegner? Starting with that challenge, Stegner and Russell Rowland invited several dozen members of the western literary tribe to write about living in the West and being a western writer in particular. West of 98 gathers sixty-six literary testimonies, in essays and poetry, from a stellar collection of writers who represent every state west of the 98th parallel—a kind of Greek chorus of the most prominent voices in western literature today, who seek to "characterize the West as each of us grew to know it, and, equally important, the West that is still becoming." In West of 98, western writers speak to the ways in which the West imprints itself on the people who live there, as well as how the people of the West create the personality of the region. The writers explore the western landscape—how it has been revered and abused across centuries—and the inescapable limitations its aridity puts on all dreams of conquest and development. They dismantle the boosterism of manifest destiny and the cowboy and mountain man ethos of every-man-for-himself, and show instead how we must create new narratives of cooperation if we are to survive in this spare and beautiful country. The writers seek to define the essence of both actual and metaphoric wilderness as they journey toward a West that might honestly be called home. A collective declaration not of our independence but of our interdependence with the land and with each other, West of 98 opens up a whole new panorama of the western experience.

In the summer of 1975, just one year before the United States Bicentennial celebration, a trip was proposed extending from Michigan's heartland to the wilds of the Alaskan wilderness then back to the main forty eight, down the Pacific Coast, and finally across the desert southwest before returning to our home base in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The trip was to last for a total of three months, requiring participants to leave their jobs, their friends, and their family in order to commit to this cross continent journey. This journal relates the story of the three intrepid travelers who braved the elements and the unknown to make the journey. Includes 2012 Alaska cruise journal notes.
