| Meer info | Illustrated edition. First printing 1989. Dimensions 15,2 x 11,4 x 1 cm This is an exact facsimile of the first guidebook of its kind to the full length of the famous Route 66, from Chicago to Los Angeles, combining historical data, road information, and accommodations all in one volume. Previous guides covered only one such subject. It was first published in 1946. Route 66 is part of American history now, and this guide is useful for those who wish to follow the old road in lieu of driving on the interstate highways that have replaced it. Highway 66 is the great artery from Chicago to Los Angeles, via St. Louis, Joplin, Oklahoma City, Amarillo, Albuquerque, Gallup, Flagstaff, and Needles. All scenic points along the highway are listed here, many of them little-known spots. Rittenhouse includes altitude and 1940 population figures for each town, with information on reliable garages, tourist courts (the forerunners of today's motels), and other local attractions. This fascinating piece of Americana recalls a day before the arrival of franchised restaurants and hotels, when travel still held some surprises. Anyone driving in the West or recalling a trip in the good old days will enjoy it. The book is divided into ten chapters, corresponding to the journeys between stops by the average motorist. In addition, this structure makes the book useful to the traveler who wishes to follow only part of old US 66. Use this complete facsimile to retrace the famous old road! + + + Boekhandel Ampersand is proud to offer you this unique and complete mile-by-mile travel guide, a brilliant piece of nostalgia, and guarantees a free delivery at home in the Woerden-Montfoort area. Not by Harley-Davidson, camper or Chevrolet van, but simply by bike or driving a car over boring N-ways. |
