The Steinbeck poem in "Cannery Row" is called "Sea of Cortez." It reflects on the beauty and mystery of marine life and the interconnectedness of all living things.

The Grapes of Wrath, East of Eden, Cannery Row just to name a few.
Cannery Row.
Ed Ricketts, close friend of John Steinbeck, was a marine biologist. Steinbeck was able to go on a number of expeditions with Ricketts, and these served as research for Cannery Row, Sweet Thursday, and The Sea of Cortez. Cannery Row is dedicated to him.
"Of Mice and Men" and "Cannery Row" are two that I can remember.
The address of the Steinbeck Wax Museum is: 700 Cannery Row, Monterey, CA 93940
Cannery Row in Monterey California is an example of one. There are many other real locations throughout Steinbeck's work.
Eddie Ricketts, a marine biologist, inspired Steinbeck to incorporate themes of greed, destruction, and the natural world in "The Pearl". Ricketts' ecological theories influenced Steinbeck's portrayal of nature's beauty and power, as well as the destructive consequences of human interference. Steinbeck's friendship with Ricketts also deepened his understanding of the interconnectedness of all living things, which is reflected in the novella.
