Road Trip USA Route 66 Paperback – May 26, 2015

Great guide for traveling the mother road, however I wish it would have had some maps of how to stay on the road better, not just some of the small towns on 66. Some towns - specifically St Louis are so hard to navigate and still try to stay on the correct path & still see the 66 landmarks.Tip: I found an app (Road Trip 66) that I used in conjunction with this guide and did pretty good, but unfortunately the app had so many more landmarks to see & an actual GPS to follow me and make sure I took the right exits. But this book helped with the bigger places to go visit.

This book is a duplicate of the Route 66 chapter in a larger book called "Road Trip USA". It's "handier" for the car trip -- not so bulky and heavy in my travel bag. The book is very helpful in planning your trip -- great and very complete information. I would add a section -- "Side Trips" that should not be missed. There are a few included in the bigger book I believe, but "Pie Town", for example (about 30 miles off Route 66 in New Mexico") was omitted. However, you usually cannot do ALL the restaurants and diners mentioned anyway, so perhaps this omission just reflects their decision to draw the line somewhere!

If you are going to do a bucket list, take a road trip on Rt 66. My gal pal and I decided to do this trip and we wanted plenty of information before we left. This was one of the books we got and was very pleased with it. Loads of information. Take at least 2 weeks to follow this route..you wont regret it.

It was OK but not what I wanted. Needed more mapping in order to see where to get on and off the freeway etc. Wound up purchasing "HERE IT IS", the map series from Ghost Town Press. Found it to be much better. It has individual state maps and is done in a 'fun' style. I did combine it with "Road Trip USA" and it did help a bit.

I used this book for a recent trip on Rt 66 from Flagstaff AZ to Oklahoma City OK and it was very helpful...You wont see much of Rt 66 without this book...Gives you alot of little side trips that you can take just off Rt66...Great purchase...

Wow! Great must have book to read about Route 66. It will surely be one of our guides when we travel Route 66 this summer.

This is a good smaller book, and I'm pleased with it. It'll be a handy reference source for my brother on a trip down that route this summer.

Good info if planning to drive America's highway

Really useful for our road trip - good information especially about sightseeing and what not to miss and what to avoid. Small and compact

Excellent - just completed Route 66 and used this book as a travel guide. Really helpful and useful. May- June 19

A very informative book in a handy format. Very good with mad of each State. My Best book of route 66

Small book but it packs a lot in, a great taste of the Mother Road!

Great reference!

Great little guide book - a great addition to any road trip planning for Route 66.

Good reference for my planned trip on R66

it was a brilliant addition to our easy guide book, and helped us find many things of interest along the way

A verry Good descriptive book easy to follow

I bought this book because I am planning to do the trip in the future. It has been an enjoyable read and while it isn't a definitive route map it has enthused me as to places I would like to visit on, an off the route. I will be buying the most up-to-date version before departure and this being the older version is why it has 4 stars, not 5.
