## Description

On the Road chronicles Jack Kerouac's years traveling the North American continent with his friend Neal Cassady, " a sideburned hero of the snowy West." As " Sal Paradise" and " Dean Moriarty," the two roam the country in a quest for self-knowledge and experience. Kerouac's love of America, his compassion for humanity, and his sense of language as jazz combine to make On the Road an inspirational work of lasting importance.
