From School Library Journal:
Grade 8-10-An evenhanded, authoritative account of the life of a remarkable man who has become an icon as a chronicler of life for the poor and disenfranchised. With only a scant 12 pages devoted to Steinbeck's early life, the text moves quickly to his adulthood and his life as a writer. Subsequent chapters chronicle his uneven journey to literary acclaim, his lifelong search for issues and voice, and his pursuit of excellence in his craft. Quotations from Steinbeck's work preface each chapter. This well-documented book will be appreciated by students for its wealth of information, conciseness, and readability. Average-quality, black-and white photos and stills from movie adaptations of Steinbeck's works illustrate the book.
