Where Steinbeck Said Goodbye to His California Home — Video Dispatch

by Editor / Thursday, October 09 2025 / Published in Dispatches from the Road

Clay and Russ Eagle recently visited Fremont Peak, which overlooks California’s Salinas Valley and Monterey Bay. It was an especially important spot for John Steinbeck and deeply tied to his youth. Russ reads a passage from Travels with Charley, where the famous author writes about his last visit there.
