"Roads to Quoz" (quoz: an 18th century word meaning "anything out of the ordinary") is a lyrical, funny, and touching account of a series of American journeys into small-town America. William Least Heat-Moon's "Blue Highways," published in 1982, was acclaimed as a classic, a travel book like no other.
