About This Item
New York: Viking Press/Penguin Group, 1995. First Edition. Hardcover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" tall. Type: Hardback First Printing. Hardcover Book and Dust Jacket AS NEW. Mylar jacket cover. Clean and unmarked, tight & solid, square with sharp corners. Jen, Del, Jen's father Mike, and her friend Penny head out to Los Angeles to do something about the LA riots, people getting bashed, the fires. They are fired up about this. They journey from Biloxi, Mississippi to Dallas to tourist sites in New Mexico and Arizona. When Jen sets up a scourge of email spamming to attract interest in their 'mission', she hears from a strange guy, Dobson, who believes anarchy is the only game in town. Meanwhile Jen and Del begin to think maybe the spectacular world around them is really more important. Dobson causes trouble--he has an agenda and it is not good. 243 pages. 9.5 x 6.25 inches. Viking Press/Penguin Grp, New York, 1995.
