the Dust Road Home: A Texas Boyhood on Edge of Route 66

This story began because I wanted to preserve a piece of my family's history before it disappeared. Route 66. A coming-of-age story set in the rugged Texas Panhandle. Caleb Turner grows up between the quiet demands of farm life and the restless pull of the open road. Raised in a world of hard work, family ties, and wide-open land, he learns early that life doesn't follow the simple rules of the stories he once believed. From childhood adventures and small-town friendships to the responsibilities of ranch life and the realities of growing up, Caleb's journey captures a disappearing piece of American history. Inspired by true memories from Pierce C. Castleberry, Jr., The Dust Road Home is a timeless story of family, resilience, and the places that shape who we become.
