Ebook About
Between the Great Depression and the mid-1970s, hitchhikers were a common sight for motorists, as American service members, students, and adventurers sought out the romance of the road in droves. Beats, hippies, feminists, and civil rights and antiwar activists saw "thumb tripping" as a vehicle for liberation, living out the counterculture's rejection of traditional values. Yet, by the time Ronald Reagan, a former hitchhiker himself, was in the White House, the youthful faces on the road chasing the ghost of Jack Kerouac were largely gone—along with sympathetic portrayals of the practice in state legislatures and the media. In Roadside Americans, Jack Reid traces the rise and fall of hitchhiking, offering vivid accounts of life on the road and how the act of soliciting rides from strangers, and the attitude toward hitchhikers in American society, evolved over time in synch with broader economic, political, and cultural shifts. In doing so, Reid offers insight into significant changes in the United States amid the decline of liberalism and the rise of the Reagan Era.

Book Roadside Americans: The Rise and Fall of Hitchhiking in a Changing Nation Review :



I am one of those people of whom the author speaks. Between 1966-70 when I was in college through my service in the Army in 71-72 until the time I finally moved from the East Coast to the West I hitched up and down the East from Providence to Miami down through New Orleans, Houston, the Southwest. All up the West Coast as far north as Ft Nelson on the Alcan Hwy and everywhere in between. Did the same for a month in Europe. It was a great time. Jack Reid does a decent job of painting with a broad brush what suddenly dawns on me (at 71) is ancient history. My only reservations to his observations as to when I was on the road are;1. never heard the term "thumb tripping"2. not that many women, maybe one in ten3. as I never knew anyone in the service who hitched wearing a uniform, the only reason you were more liable to get a ride was because of your short hair.As to motivation? There is a great line by the essayist E.B. White"There is a period near the beginning of every man's life when he has little to cling to except his unmanageable dream, little to support him except good health, and nowhere to go but all over the place."
Interesting and included the years i hitched
