In the footsteps of Robert Frost, Martin Luther King, Jr., Elvis, Jefferson Davis, Robert Oppenheimer, Henry Ford ...

by Philip Greenspun; created 1994

Highlights of this story include a journey through the Deep South, a visit to the U.S.'s only concentration camp for Jews, photographs of New England fall foliage, golden Aspen trees in Colorado, and animals in the New Orleans Zoo, and the remarkably peculiar Henry Ford Museum.

There are 30 pages of text and 410 JPEG photographs, divided into three sections:

• my trip from Boston to Los Alamos, New Mexico through the South,
• three months spent working at Los Alamos National Laboratory in the summer of 1994, and
• my trip from Los Alamos back to Boston through Colorado, Ontario, the Adirondacks, and Vermont.

Praise for Greenspun's earlier work on the Web

"You make me sound like a world-class caustic nympho bitch."

"What is a good argument, What might be called a good description, What is style? Unfortunately, I do not have an answer to these questions. However, sometimes I know for sure that something is neither a good argument, nor a good description and has definitely no style."

Dietmar J. (Freiburg, Germany)
