Jack Sheedy's latest book, In My Father's Tire Tracks, was released in 2024. Follow the author and his father along separate road trips in different centuries along the same route, through the same cities, from Connecticut to California. Why did his father leave home in 1959 in a brand new Thunderbird, risking that he would miss Christmas with his family? What were his thoughts as he drove through Washington DC, down the Atlantic seaboard, across time zones and bayous in the Gulf states, across the wide Texas plains, across Arizona deserts? Why did his son follow 62 years later, pursuing his father, wondering if they saw the same sights, felt the same loneliness, marveled at the same salmon-colored sunrises? Was that a ’60 T-Bird the author just saw? Is that his father in an empty lot in Las Cruces, New Mexico? What do they learn from each other? Order here.
