First Time in Paperback! Author Michael Witzel spent years travelling the "Mother Road" collecting mementos of life and folklore that make up the most famous road in America. Two lanes of concrete and asphalt stretched through eight states, rolling and wandering from Chicago to Los Angeles. Route 66 was road tripping at its finest. This incredible collection of historical photographs shows you all the attractions and towns as they were then and as they are today. Richly illustrated with archival photographs, contemporary shots of defunct locations and plenty of nostalgic advertisements.
