In his 2015 travel book entitled Four Seasons on Back Roads, author Paul Theroux describes the town as "desolate, a scattering of mobile homes at the edge of the road and bordering the plowed fields--decayed, rusted boxes, lying higgledy-piggedly with an air of disorder and desperation, like a refugee camp, which it was, in a way."[7]
