5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Book, November 16, 2006
This review is from: You Can't Get There from Here (Hardcover)
"You Can't Get There From Here" is the story of a youth's daylong search for his father. His search throughout Manhattan becomes a personal odyssey, bringing both tears and laughter. The book's characters and
experiences are poignant scenarios of real life. The reader is carried along from one engaging adventure to the next, and finally to the day's thrilling, heart-pounding conclusion.

"You Can't Get There from Here" is an uplifting, life affirming book by one of America's great storytellers and writers. "(This book) is a hymn to the love of family and community Hamner had known as a boy." *
Highly recommended.

* "Earl Hamner--From Walton's Mountain to Tomorrow" 2005
