Wanderlust. A pressing desire to know what's beyond the next horizon. A yearning to see something other than one's own backyard.Travel writer and novelist Gail Hulnick has a weakness for the good old-fashioned road trip. Oh, she enjoys 75 mph on the Interstate, but her favorite road is the winding two-lane through the mountains, the seldom-used strip of asphalt that connects the small towns or the old desert highway that gets you there slowly. Rumble Strip USA invites you into the passenger seat for travel stories and photos from sideroad journeys in 25 states including the view from the top of a Vermont mountain, the nostalgia of vintage gas stations and motels along Arizona's Route 66 and the rhythm of a twisting byway through Washington.

A mercurial actor, a shadowy collector, a deep-sea diver and a veteran reporter questioning her priorities are all swept up in the frantic search for clues, for answers and for A Bird in the Sand.

A rumble strip is that line of bumps set into pavement that is intended to make you slow down and take a look. In the summer of 2017 two intrepid expat Canadians set out to fulfill a lifelong dream of driving their home and native land from coast-to-coast. Starting at the eastern-most point of North America, they dropped the top on the aging convertible and headed west in search of Canadian experience, identity, culture, landscape, music and moose, in celebration of Canada’s 150th anniversary. Three weeks, ten provinces and 7,800 kilometers later they pulled up to the (ironically labeled and mysteriously duplicated) Mile Zero in Victoria, British Columbia. Rumble Strip: Canada 150 is the story of this eye-opening, life-affirming, joyous, and sometimes silly adventure.Rumble Strip Canada 150 is illustrated with a series of black and white photographs capturing glimpses of Canada's architecture and landscape. It also includes a curated playlist of 150 of the author's favorite songs by Canadian performers, region by region.
