How "On The Road" became published

This is not to be missed, a great story.

While I was only able to hear about half of the report from NPR, the information was very interesting. I studied On the Road back when I was in university and it became one of my favourite books that I read through a class (one of the others was "All Quiet on the Western Front").

Its always interesting to find out different things of interest in regards to a good book. Thank you for sharing.

The NPR website also links to a video of "the scroll," the roll of paper Kerouac typed On the Road onto, being unrolled for display. I was reminded of the spaceship in the beginning of Star Wars - it just goes on and on and on...
