This fun, engaging, and wonderfully illustrated account of one seasoned pro's journey on the legendary Route 66 is sure to inspire a reader's wanderlust.
In less than 100 concise but comprehensive pages, Tim Steil neatly weaves in his own experiences with people he met along the way to create a one-of-a-kind travelogue that reminds readers that their own potential Route 66 trip would be equally unique.
This is a really satisfying armchair travel book. Some of the info is outdated (it's the nature of the beast, the book is almost 20 years old and these things change), but it will either bring back fond memories of the trip you took yourself, or inspire you to start planning one. Or in my case, both.
This was a good book for me as filler between more serious reading. I like being on the road and I like books on Route 66 so this worked fine for a break from weightier stuff...
