100 Years of Route 66: A Celebration of an American Icon (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781398128798)

Route 66 is the very essence of Americana--a ribbon of asphalt and concrete that embodies the American Dream in its diners, motels, and gas stations.

For some, it evokes images of rusting gas pumps and broken neon signs; for others, it represents the freedom of the open road. Think The Grapes of Wrath meets Cars, Art Deco meets Harley-Davidson--it's the ultimate road trip.

As Route 66 celebrates its 100th birthday, this book pays tribute to America's most famous highway with a stunning collection of photographs that capture its spirit, history, and enduring legacy.

Channeling nostalgia for this American icon--and the timeless appeal of the Route 66 brand--it also inspires photographers to explore and document the soul of the Mother Road for themselves.

Perfect for lovers of travel, history, and photography--and for anyone who dreams of life on the open road--this book keeps the spirit of Route 66 alive for future generations.
