"Route 66 Adventure Handbook" by Drew Knowles

A co-worker was reading a different book about Route 66 and that gave me the idea to check out a book about Route 66 from the local library. I ended up with "Route 66 Adventure Handbook" by Drew Knowles. I have to tell you I did not finish the book. The author talks so much about how hard it is to FIND The original Route 66 because of the way things have changed that it pretty much made me give up on the idea. He kind of killed the magic for me. Instead of feeling inspired, I feel defeated. I might pick up another book on the subject right now, but for the moment I think I'll read other road stories or plan my own fantasy vacations etc. This book was a waste of my time. Sorry folks. I don't recommend it.
