'This Land is Your Land' by Beverly Gage

 This Land is Your Land, Beverly Gage (3.0)

While I found some of the chapters interesting in this recounting of a meandering trip across the US, I had trouble discerning a theme. The chapters felt very random- more like articles in a magazine. I particularly liked her retelling of visiting Los Alamos with a night’s stay in a missile silo. I also enjoyed the Chicago World’s Fair chapter. She does a good job of highlighting the smaller, yet equally important, parks and important historical landmarks. I would have liked more of an obvious theme joining the chapters.
