Product Details
- An encyclopedia with a twist, The Route 66 Encyclopedia presents alphabetical entries on Route 66 history, landmarks, personalities, and culture, from Bobby Troup’s anthem “Route 66” to The Grapes of Wrath to the Wigwam Motel. It is illustrated with over 1,000 old and new, color and black-and-white photos and memorabilia. You'll learn about Jack Rittenhouse and Will Rogers as well as the contributions of lesser-known figures like Arthur Nelson and Angel Delgadillo. With references to the old (including the history of the U Drop Inn Café in Texas) and new (including a section about the recent Cars movie), The Route 66 Encyclopedia provides a sweeping look at a highway that has become more than just a road. These pages cover the history of Route 66 and the people who played a role in its transformation from highway to icon between 1926 and the present, but like the highway itself, this work does not fit within the traditional confines of generalities or terminology. Yes, this is an encyclopedia, a reference book for all things Route 66. However, it is also a time capsule, a travel guide, a history book, a memorial, a testimonial, and a chronicle of almost a century of societal evolution.

Travel Editorial Review
** The Route 66 Encyclopedia** The Route 66 Encyclopedia, published in 2016, has emerged as a beloved companion for both seasoned travelers and newcomers to America's historic highway. With a wealth of well-organized, alphabetical reference material, the book provides a detailed insight into the towns, attractions, and history associated with Route 66.

Travelers who have completed the route from Chicago to Santa Monica appreciate the encyclopedia’s extensive documentation of historical sites and current attractions, ensuring they stay well-informed about the legendary road and its rich heritage. The book often serves as a delightful coffee table piece, encouraging casual browsing and inspiring future journeys. However, there are caveats to Consider; since it's not designed primarily as a navigation tool, users may need supplementary resources to find their way. Some found the alphabetical listing to be less useful during the journey, while others adapted quickly and appreciated the ease of locating towns. Overall, the combination of historical context, engaging photography, and broad-reaching content solidifies The Route 66 Encyclopedia as an essential resource for anyone looking to explore this iconic journey. **
