Route 66

The fi rst continuous road connection between Chicago and Los Angeles still makes us feel nostalgic today. It is synonymous with liberty and infi nite expanses, street cruisers and »Easy Riders«, neon advertising and American diners – in short: the symbols of a nation, whose lifestyle is characterized by being »on the road«. The West was once both promise and destination – paradise on Earth. »Go California« was the motto – Route 66 was the way to get there. This magnifi cently illustrated volume shows you forgotten places and outstanding sights along the legendary highway.
