Description
Thirty years ago, Rinker Buck and his brother embarked on an epic journey across America, flying their restored Piper Cub from New Jersey to California. Now, in this affecting true story, Buck looks back on that summer of 1966, when the world seemed a more carefree place.
Buck's tale is one of adventure, family drama, and the thrill of exploring the open skies. With his great storytelling skills, he whisks you away to a bygone era, where the challenges were greater, but the sense of possibility was palpable.
