The highway is a defining part of American culture, where the roadside diner, highway motel, and humble gas station have become an art form. In this beautifully illustrated book, 12 of the most evocative American roadways are highlighted: Route 66, the Devil's Highway (Route 666), Lincoln Highway, US 1, Highway 61, Highway 285, US 23, US 22/27, US 62/95/93, US 281, California Hwy 1, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Author Andrew Montgomery details the contradiction at the heart of American wanderlust - the desire to belong and feel at home, and the need to gas upand move on - using period and current photos, advertisements, roadsigns, brochures, maps, and more.
