Travelogue From an Unruly Youth
\

“A boxcar journey and a journey of the heart: Another great railroad book from Burkhardt … although this one’s a lot more than trains. This is the story we all lived, or wanted to live ~ it’s what happens when youth, freedom, freight trains and love get mixed together. Imagine riding freight all across North America, while trying to figure out the ways of the heart, and writing it all down ~ and then coming back to it 30 years later and making sense of it all. If you ever hopped a freight, or wanted to, you could read it just for that. If you ever followed your heart wherever it led, good or bad, you could read it for that. This is a personal and honest book, full of love, rebellion and redemption. What more is there? My advice is get it and read it.” ~ Scott Sparling, author of Wire To Wire
