Overview
What if the journey of a lifetime began with the turn of a page?
When 18-year-old Daniel Marlowe inherits a rare, signed first edition of John Steinbeck’s Travels with Charley, he doesn’t expect it to change his life. But alongside his loyal dog—also named Steinbeck—Daniel sets out on a cross-country adventure that mirrors the Nobel Prize–winning author’s iconic search for America.
From small towns to big cities, from chance encounters to lifelong friendships, Daniel discovers lessons in forgiveness, faith, resilience, and love. Along the way, he learns that the most meaningful journeys are not measured in miles, but in the wisdom and legacy we carry forward.
Bestselling author Jim Stovall (The Ultimate Gift) delivers a heartwarming, inspiring novel for Steinbeck fans, literature lovers, and anyone searching for meaning in their own story.
Travels with Steinbeck: A Journey of Discovery, Wisdom, and Legacy is an unforgettable coming-of-age tale that celebrates democracy, diversity, and the enduring power of the human spirit.
Perfect for fans of inspirational fiction, road trip novels, and timeless coming-of-age classics.
