Russell Olsen. This engaging look at the 'Mother Road' takes 75 locations along its 2,297-mile route and shows them first during their halcyon heydays through black-and-white photographs and period postcards, then on the facing page as they appear today.

Summary: Very disapointed
Comment: I was very disapointed with this book. I was hoping to get some information about route 66 as it is today, but it's all but gone now.
What made it a bad book for me is they showed how it used to be then should it as it is today. I just wanted to cry. It would have been all right if they just showed the old or the new, but the before and after just about killed me emotionally.

Summary: Lost and Found
Comment: Both volume one and two are very interesting and well researched books.
I traveled Route 66 a couple of years ago and reading the book was fascinating- now I know how many locations I went sailing past without a clue!
When I next get a chance to do a repeat journey, I shall certainly re-read the books very thoroughly and travel slower so as not to miss such historic scenes.
