"Wanderlust" by Robert R. Reynolds is an exhilarating autobiographical story from long ago. It shadows a young man's yearning travels as he sets out on a quest for thrill, taking him to different places, like the southern United States, and Europe. Through the eyes of a courageous young main character, Reynolds describes a vivid image of the character's craving for adventure and freedom. The book introduces a fourteen-year-old boy driven by a spirited soul and a love for excitement as he runs away from college and heads to Charleston, South Carolina. He boards a steamship to Jacksonville, Florida. The story recounts his humorous misadventures, conflicts with the crew, how he survives, and the problems of his naivety.

Summary
About the AuthorRobert Rice Reynolds was an American politician who served as a Democratic US senator from North Carolina from 1932 to 1945. Almost from the outset of his Senate career, "Our Bob," as he was known among his local supporters, acquired distinction as a passionate isolationist and increasing notoriety as an apologist for Nazi aggression in Europe. Even after America's entry into World War II, according to a contemporary study of subversive elements in America, he "publicly endorsed the propaganda efforts of Gerald L. K. Smith," whose scurrilous publication The Cross and the Flag "violently assailed the United States war effort and America's allies." One of the nation's most influential fascists, Smith likewise collaborated with Reynolds on The Defender, an antisemitic newspaper that was partly owned by Reynolds.
