The Wayward Bus travelled the backroads through the lush California countryside. Its driver was a man of the land - lusty, hot-blooded and uninhibited. On the bus was a girl who danced at stag parties, a travelling salesman strictly out for fun, a boy coming into manhood and a college girl pursuing her secret, passionate quest. This is a story of crisis and passion, of love and longing. In many ways it is one of Steinbeck's most powerful novels, not least because it shows just how profound his knowledge of human beings and their emotions is. Book

The Wasp was founded as a weekly satire magazine in San Francisco in 1876 by the Bohemian expatriate Francis Korbel and his two brothers who also founded the Korbel Champagne Cellars. The first issue was published on August 5 1876. The lead artist until 1883 was George Frederick Keller. The magazine was somewhat unusual at the time owing to the Korbels' expertise in mass-producing color lithographs in print a process they had come to master in their first business the manufacture of labeled cigar boxes. The magazine was sold in secret in 1881 to Charles Webb Howard who hired Edward C. Macfarlane as publisher. The Wasp Publishing Company unknown
