Carrying their packed bikes over the rocky shore of Seaside, Oregon, they dipped their rear wheels in the Pacific. Eleven weeks and 3500 miles later they arrived at Crescent Beach, Florida, where they dipped their front wheels in the Atlantic. In between, they crossed the Rockies, pedaled into the Texas Panhandle's cold winds, and faced both the warmth and bigotry of the Deep South. The sisters saw an America that few young women witnessed in the 1970's. With no cell phone or Internet, they became fully immersed in the surrounding world. Along the way, people would repeatedly ask them why. Why would two girls take to the road on their bikes? After nearly 40 years, Schapiro offers her answer. Through poems and photographs, she chronicles their trip, evoking both the internal and external landscapes they experienced along the way. \u003cem\u003eLet The Wind Push Us Across\u003c\/em\u003e captures the spirit of adventure and the exhilaration she felt each morning when unzipping the tent she \"leaned into the world.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jane Schapiro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Antrim House\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.16d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781943826230","brand":"Antrim House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46428610396297,"sku":"9781943826230","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_bde6d156-8bcf-4c52-9833-25ee92bb3fd2.jpg?v=1778014199","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/let-the-wind-push-us-across-9781943826230","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
