Across America By Motorcycle is a travelogue written by C.K. Shepherd and published in 1922. The book chronicles the author's journey across the United States on a motorcycle, from New York City to San Francisco. Throughout the book, Shepherd describes the various towns and cities he passes through, as well as the people he meets along the way. He also provides detailed descriptions of the landscapes and natural wonders he encounters, such as the Rocky Mountains and the Grand Canyon. The book is notable for its vivid descriptions of early 20th century America, including the bustling cities of the East Coast and the vast, untamed wilderness of the West. It also provides a unique perspective on the history of transportation, as Shepherd recounts the challenges and triumphs of traveling across the country on a relatively new and untested mode of transportation.
