Praise for The Great Northern Express " Like Howard Frank Mosher, I am a novelist and a cancer survivor, and I live in northern New England. The journey Mr. Mosher describes is very familiar to me-made more poignant by the faultless details and inimitable characters the author encounters on his odyssey of self-discovery. Mosher has always been a gifted storyteller; this time, there is an added euphoria in his storytelling-borne by the hope he and I share: for now, we have dodged a bullet that thirty thousand American men don't dodge every year." -John Irving "Mosher colorfully weaves stories...to create a brilliantly vibrant quilt that covers us with his warmth, humor, and love of discovery, reading, and writing." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Whimsical....Mosher provides a genial reminder that adventures are possible at any age." - Kirkus Reviews "Hilarious, poignant, and honest, this bittersweet memoir is a sheer delight to read." - Booklist From the Hardcover edition., Praise for The Great Northern Express " Like Howard Frank Mosher, I am a novelist and a cancer survivor, and I live in northern New England.

Synopsis
From bestselling, nationally celebrated author Howard Frank Mosher, a wildly funny and deeply personal account of his three-month, 20,000-mile sojourn to discover what he loved enough to live for. Several months before novelist Howard Frank Mosher turned sixty-five, he learned that he had prostate cancer. Following forty-six intensive radiation treatments, Mosher set out alone in his twenty-year-old Chevy Celebrity on a monumental road trip and book tour across twenty-first-century America. From a chance meeting with an angry moose in northern New England to late-night walks on the wildest sides of America's largest cities, The Great Northern Express chronicles Mosher's escapades with an astonishing array of erudite bibliophiles, homeless hitchhikers, country crooners and strippers, and aspiring writers of all circumstances. Full of high and low comedy and rollicking adventures, this is part travel memoir, part autobiography, and pure, anarchic fun. From coast to coast and border to border, this unforgettable adventure of a top-notch American writer demonstrates that, sometimes, in order to know who we truly are, we must turn the wheel towards home., From bestselling, nationally celebrated author Mosher comes a wildly funny and deeply personal account of his three-month, 20,000-mile sojourn to discover what he loved enough to live for.
