Synopsis

The Long Haul moves back and forth through time, touching down on real and imaginary sites. Some of these places are in the public domain, as it were, and others are private. The geography is often in the West―Oregon and Idaho―but there are significant side trips in the East and Europe as well as regions that can't be found on maps.
