In this series, Frank Barry is retracing his 2020 Winnebago trip across America on the Lincoln Highway, the nation’s oldest transcontinental route. That adventure, which eventually became a book , focused on finding a way forward for a divided country. This time around, he’ll be revisiting some of the issues he examined, and some of the people he met, to learn what’s changed — and whether there is now more or less hope about the future.
The Lincoln Highway begins in Times Square, but before departing on this journey across the country, I wanted to mark the day — September 11th — with the solemn reverence it deserves.
