Sweet Promised Land

#948
Title: Sweet Promised Land
Author: Robert Laxalt
Publisher: University of Nevada Press
Year:1957/1997
Country: Basque Country
198 pages

A very sweet, poignant memoir/travelogue about Laxalt's father and a trip they took together back to Basque Country, where his father grew up. Well-written in deceptively simple language considering the complex emotional experiences depicted.

Could be used for Nevada or Basque country in geographical challenges.
