The cover was fine but the printed pages were on extremely poor quality coarse paper such as you would find in a cheap paperback. This is by far the most disappointing purchase I made on . I already have a 1962 paperback copy. I was purchasing this to keep it and reread it every now and then. I was excited to open the package and see my purchase. What a disappointment.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. 6 StarsBy San Francisco BaggerI'd give 'em if I could. "Travels with Charley" is one of those books that gets better every time I read it.50 years after it appeared; it is becoming a window on America at the beginning of a pivotal time; which gives it a poignant feel; especially near the end. I've been to the Steinbeck Center and checked out the restored Rocinante as well as the great old GMC 3/4 ton truck it's mounted on...I'd have like to have looked through it at the end of the journey.The Kindle edition I purchased is just fine: easily navigated; as ususal.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Still relevant in 21st century USABy SawyerThis is an excellent book. I am particularly struck by how some of the same kinds of stereotypical behaviors associated with American regions still hold true 50+ years later. The conclusion of the book is heart-breaking; as the narrator/author encounters the sick; repulsive racism of the south.
