Fueled by an insuperable lust for life and earnings from three game shows, Peter Lawrence Kane sought to realize his life-long goal: getting to all fifty states before his thirtieth birthday. This is the hilarious account of the bizarre (mis-)adventures that befell a self-described "gay nerd" as he moved around the country, making out in national parks, sneaking his dog into motels and falling in love with kitsch roadside Americana. Torn by the desire to complete the quest and the need to earn a living, Kane can't resist the allure of the road even if it means turning into his own worst enemy. What else are your twenties about?
