An entire library of guides that attempt to cover everything. This book does something harder: it identifies the 30 stops that are essential in a way the others are not and explains precisely why each one earned its place. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEvery entry in these pages answers a single question: \"If a traveller drives Route 66 and misses this stop, what specifically, have they lost that nothing else on the route can replace?\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen the answer is strong and defensible, the stop is in.
