Dave Hoekstra “Camper Book” Signing August 26

WGN’s “Nocturnal Journal” Dave Hoekstra’s books and travel essays explore sense of place.

But what happens when you take sense of place on the road? A place where place is always moving? That’s one of the themes of the new “Camper Book (A Celebration of a Moveable American Dream)” just released on Chicago Review Press. The book explores a diverse community that includes traveling nurses, country-western singers, gay campers and famous roadies like Cubs manager Joe Maddon and singer-songwriter John Prine.

Dave and book photographer Jon Sall will be signing copies of the “Camper Book” on Sunday Aug. 26.
