Romance on Route 66

Passing through eight states and stretching from Chicago to Los Angeles, Route 66 was once the main artery for westbound travelers. The highway inspired a hit song, a television series, and the Pixar animated movie, Cars. No longer part of the U.S. highway system, most of Route 66 is gone, leaving a few stretches of 'Historic Route 66' and local festivals to commemorate its place in American pop culture. The spirit of Route 66 lives on in Romance on Route 66 as authors Judith Leigh and Cheryl Norman revisit four towns during four different decades. Enjoy a trip down memory lane with Romance on Route 66.
