John Steinbeck - Background.
John Steinbeck was born in Salinas, California, in 1902. His family was very wealthy, although he was interested in working as a farm labourer. He spent a lot of time working on a ranch, and based a lot of his novels on his experiences.
A lot of his novels were about people who worked on the land, and dreamed of a better life. (Similar to the american dream) An example of this is a book he wrote called: 'The Grapes of Wrath'
