"The Kindness of Strangers"

Mike McIntyre came to me for snowchains for his vehicle, and, on discovering my "mission" of helping others on the highways he presented me with a copy of his book --

"The Kindness of Strangers" [ penniless across America ]

which he signed "from one Highwayman to another" :)

His book is a GREAT read and a testament to the diversity and goodness of MOST people he encountered on his quest.

paperback -- Berkley Press -- New York

I highly reccommend it for "back roads" travelers.

Thanks for the suggestion, I looked at the book and we will feature it on the home page of this site next week.

I picked up the book The Kindness of Strangers, by Mike McIntyre, about a month ago. I found this book in the corner of a used book store and thought it would work well as an outlet during the stress of finishing my undergrad thesis. I didn't want anything heavy or scientific, and this book just seemed to fall from the shelves. Four days after completing my final semester in undergrad, I have just finally finished the book. I'm not quite sure how I'm feeling about it yet, but I was effected enough that I immediately came on line in search of someone to talk to about it. I don't know, maybe I'm insane, or just going through the post college freak out, but if there's anyone that has something to say, I'd like to hear it.
