Summary: The American Highway - Get this one!
Review: "This is the most complete book I've seen about the development of roads in the United States. The American Highway also has great histories and photos of gasoline retailers like Mobil and Phillips 66, early roadside restaurants such as Dairy Queen, A & W and Stuckey's, and motels (Holiday Inn, TraveLodge, etc.). Hundreds of historical photos, from the pinoeer days, modern-day turnpikes, up to the interstates. It's a must-have book for anyone interesting in highway travel. I would highly recommend this book."
