In these humorous and affectionate television poems, humorist Jean Shepherd celebrates America in all its richness and diversity -- from cars to candy, baseball to beer, motels to money. Each week a different aspect of our national psyche is explored as Shepherd travels to the Okefenokee Swamp, Death Valley, Milwaukee, the Old South, and other far-flung locations -- using the PCP-90 portable camera.
S2 E10 • 7/9/1985
Shep examines the life of a remittance man living off government stipend on the island of Guam, the island's local legends, its most scenic places, and the importance of family life to its residents.
