Road Trip U. S. A.: Cross-Country Adventures on America's Two-Lane Highways

by Jamie Jensen

Road Trip U. S. A.: Cross-Country Adventures on America's Two-Lane Highways Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

"Essential for travelers who are more interested in finding the real America than the fastest way from points A to B. Highly recommended". — Library Journal
-- Contains 11 cross-country, non-interstate driving routes
-- Includes sidebars packed with roadside kitsch, bizarre facts, and survival tips for weary roadies

This 800-page handbook covers the entire United States with 11 intersecting routes, allowing travelers to create cross-country driving adventures on America's "blue highways". Of the featured routes, six run from coast to coast, and five run from Canada to Mexico.

Packed with practical information, entertaining sidebars, and e-mailed suggestions from readers of Road Trip USA's popular Web site, this book celebrates the culture and spontaneity of the American highway without sacrificing essential comforts. In addition to engaging commentary on thousands of sights and diversions, readers will find such essential information as the roadside diners with the best apple pie and the call letters and frequencies of good radio stations on lonely stretches of road.

"For budding myth collectors, I can't think of a better textbook than Moon Publications' cross-country adventure guide". — Los Angeles Times
