by Stephen J. Lyons (Author)

In West of East, veteran journalist Stephen J. Lyons takes readers on a journey into America's western interior, a tableau chockfull of one-of-a-kind, rough-around-the-edges characters and scenes rarely experienced by the everyday traveler. Lyons himself is at the center of these landscapes, chronicling not only his own past as migrant worker, but also expertly and sensitively observing the men and women who inhabit these precious spaces.
