Book excerpt: Homeless Across America is the story of a man who went from being a successful stock broker and family man to being a homeless vagabond, traveling around the country and living out of the back of his truck.Lake's journey took him to the homes of some of our greatest Presidents such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Harry Truman. He walked the fields of several decisive battles that occurred on our nation's soil such as the Battle of New Orleans and the fight at the Alamo. He traveled much of the very coarse that the Lewis and Clark expedition had traveled more than two hundred years ago while mapping out our nation.Lake's travels and the experiences they provided for him played a bigger part in his personal life as well. They helped him overcome many of the negative feelings he had about his own personal circumstances by causing him to realize that practically anyone who had ever lived as opposed to simply existed had gone through some sort of turmoil in their past but had made it through to see brighter days.
