It's an excellent coffee table book. The book is helpful to get you thinking about possibilities. This book is a pretty good idea generator if you're in the planning stages of a trip. My wife and I are planning a 25th anniversary trip and decided to see a bit of the US rather than going abroad. I know of some of the trips they recommend and they are nice.
Nice coffee Table book, nice read for my log home customers when they come by and visit.
I AM VERY EXCITED TO START OUR JOURNEY ACROSS AMERICA. I NEVER KNEW SOME OF THESE PLACES EXISTED. THANKS TO THIS BOOK WE WILL BE ABLE TO SEE MANY MANY BEAUTIFUL AND INTERESTING PLACES.
Whilst there are plenty of other travel books, The Most Scenic Drives in America gave us a concise and unbiased overview of what to see in every State, without all the advertising about where to eat and what to buy. As Australians traveling throughout the States in a motorhome, we found this book invaluable. A "Must Have" book, and a great souvenir of our travels.
It's laid out perfectly for reading a little bit during TV commercials or during a quick break from my daily tasks. This beautiful book would have been tremendously beneficial before our recent 7 state trip because SO MUCH excellent information and insight is given; we would have made far better route choices than our atlas and various web sites had recommended as supposedly `scenic routes'. And I've already acquired quite a bit more knowledge about these impressive blessings that are scattered all across our little splotch of this awesome mother earth.To address / challenge the first reviewer's unfortunate event of bad Karma. First it's an excellent reference guide that can assist us in getting the most out of our vacation plans and travel decisions. Change is the only constant in life but these phenomenal highways will STILL remain gorgeous, unforgettable life experiences for a few more centuries; if we can't visit them all, I suggest that we can at least experience them from an excellent books like this one. Even more importantly, the purchaser will be prone to use and enjoy this beautiful, extremely interesting coffee table book much more than our houseguests or office visitors will (BUT don't let them borrow it).
With SO MUCH to see and do all along these 120 awesome road trips, I really doubt if most persons would expect ALL of the flower-fields, buildings, hotels, camp grounds, historic markers or turn-outs to remain unchanged for all of eternity. There are several excellent reasons to invest in this outstanding book. Every one of the 120 highway / road trip covered in this 400 page book includes several stunning and outstanding quality pictures plus a brief synopsis of the area, a map and short descriptions of numerous interesting stops to check out on our jaunts, oh, and trip tips also. So with only a short amounts of rare spare time I've been getting to know quite a bit about these awesome area 's of America.
