Описание: The #1 New York Times bestseller: Rinker Buck s awe-inspiring charming, big-hearted, impassioned fun to read (The Boston Globe) account of traveling the length of the Oregon Trail the old-fashioned way in a covered wagon with a team of mules.
Acclaimed in hardcover as an incredible true story (Entertainment Weekly), a real nonfiction thriller (Ian Frazier, New York Review of Books), and an enchanting book filled with so much love (Wall Street Journal) that put me in mind of Bill Bryson s comic tone in A Walk in the Woods (Dwight Garner, The New York Times), Rinker Buck s The Oregon Trail was a #1 New York Times bestseller, a #1 Indie Next Pick, and a Best of the Month selection of Powell s, Apple, and Amazon.
Traveling from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Baker City, Oregon, over the course of four months, Buck is accompanied by three cantankerous mules, his boisterous brother, Nick, and a Jack Russell terrier named Olive Oyl. Along the way, they dodge thunderstorms in Nebraska, chase runaway mules across the Wyoming plains, cross the Rockies, and make desperate fifty-mile forced marches for water. The Buck brothers repair so many broken wheels and axels that they nearly reinvent the art of wagon travel itself. They also must reckon with the ghost of their father, an eccentric yet loveable dreamer whose memory inspired their journey across the plains and whose premature death, many years earlier, has haunted them both ever since.
The Oregon Trail is a majestic, uniquely American journey of a lifetime. Equal parts armchair adventure and moving history, this tale of brotherhood, persistence, and daring so snares the emotions that it becomes a tear-jerker at its close (Minneapolis Star Tribune) while also being a laugh-out-loud masterpiece and an unremitting delight (Willamette Week).

Описание:

In the Summer of 1966, Rinker and Kernahan Buck - two teenaged schoolboys from New Jersey - bought a dilapidated Piper Cub airplane for $300, rebuilt it, and piloted it on a record breaking flight across America - navigating all the way to California without a radio, because they couldn't afford one. Their trip retraced a mythical route flown by their father, Tom Buck, a brash, colorful ex-barnstormer who had lost a leg in a tragic air crash before his sons were born - but who so loved the adventure of flight that he taught his boys to fly before they could drive. The journey west, and the preparations for it, become a figurative and literal process of discovery; as the young men battle thunderstorms and wracking turbulence and encounter Arkansas rednecks, Texas cowboys, and the languid, romantic culture of smalltown cafes, cheap motels, and dusty landing strips of pre-Vietnam America. The brothers have a lot to resolve among themselves, too - as Kern, the meticulous, dedicated visionary; and Rinker, the rebellious second son, must finally come to understand and depend on each other in the complex way that only brothers can. Most of all, Flight of Passage is a timeless story of fathers and sons. These two young men must separate from their difficult, quirky father - literally by putting a country's distance between them - but they do it on their father's terms: in an airplane. As he looks back from the perspective of now being a father himself, Rinker Buck's tale of two young men in search of themselves and their country becomes a book about the eternal enigma of family - of the distance and closeness of generations, of peace lost so that understanding can be gained - and it is exploredwith a storytelling power that is both brave and rare.
