American Route 66: Home on the Road Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

For three years the photographers traveled the famous highway documenting in photographs and first person accounts the spirit of America so evident in the people who live along Route 66.

Book News Annotation:

Showcasing work done in three years of "getting their kicks on Route 66," documentary photographers pair their color and duotone photos with the comments of diverse denizens on the mystique of the road from 1926 to today. The book is indexed by businesses/attractions operating along the route, e.g., the Polk-a-dot Drive Inn and the Exotic World Burlesque Museum. Lacks further reading. Presented in a 11.25x9.5<"> landscape format. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
