Overview

The year was 1933, and the Great Depression had taken hold, but a young and adventurous writer, Ruthven Colquhoun McNairn, embarked on an incredible four month adventure from Hamilton Ontario to Chicago, Denver, and Colorado Springs exploring the cities and surrounding landscape, and then heading West, hitchhiking to Los Angeles through New Mexico, Arizona and California, capturing the unique people he met and traveled with and the strange new country he was exploring beautifully in his diary, which reads like a John Steinbeck novel. This is his unedited diary published in full, from the original manuscript, with and introduction and footnotes throughout to provide colour and context to this epic adventure. This is the companion volume to the acclaimed film ""Ruthven Goes to Colorado and California 1933"".
