Route 66 does not exist as a 'real' highway any longer, but it is still there. It did exist for a hundred years as a major arterial highway to explore America as cars became more common. It was also a major military highway getting manpower and material to the west coast right up to the end of the Vietnam War. Of course, it is best-known for its iconic Americana roadside attractions, motels, and diners. This atlas is a convenient way to explore the heartland of America. We have changed the orientation in this edition to west to east, simply because most of us read from left to right. We have changed the orientation in showing the route(s) followed on the back cover. The book has 36 pages of city maps insets, so here's your chance to explore Flagstaff, AZ! The atlas has a new ISBN, a new cover, and unfortunately, a new price.
