Product Description
Synopsis
Connecting Chicago and Los Angeles, Route 66 was lined for more than a half-century with businesses that catered to the pioneering motorists and travelers who journeyed along the "Mother Road." This nostalgic, illustrated history gathers the stories of those folks who used Route 66, as well as those who lived along the road and made their living there. Along with tales of travel, the book also examines the entire range of Route 66 vocations and services: gas, food, lodging, museums, souvenir shops, law enforcement, wrecker operators, and more. Fans of this American icon will enjoy the tales of the people who made the road a legend, as well as the hundreds of period and modern colour photographs that illustrate their stories.
