Description

Route 66 Highway, first built in 1926-32, offers a fantastic variety of scenery and history.

This segment of the highway, from the Gateway to the West through the beautiful Ozarks, is organized in over 300 vintage postcards and color photos that capture travel on "The Mother Road" across the "Show Me State." There are stops at "no-tell motels," gas stations, cafes, roadside stands, and good, old-fashioned tourist traps.

The detailed text provides histories at each stop, including icons such as Coral Court, The Diamonds, Meramec Caverns, and many more.

This book is organized first chronologically and then features a tour through the Meramec Valley, from Leasburg to Rolla, the Ozarks, Lebanon to Springfield, and Springfield to the "Ghost Section." Postcard values are included in the captions.

For all who enjoy the romance of the open road, this book is a treasure.
