A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike.” —John Steinbeck, Travels with Charley: In Search of America
In 1960 in a camper named Rocinante, Steinbeck traveled with his poodle Charley in a quixotic 10,000 mile adventure that took him throughout the United States. Our native son and winner of both a Nobel and Pulitzer Prize rests here in the Garden of Memories Cemetery in Salinas.
