No Vacancy: The Rise, Demise, and Reprise of America's Motels

No Vacancy offers a critical look at motels and their distressing disappearance from the tourism landscape. Using engaging interviews with past guests and proprietors, photographs, and case studies conducted along the Old Boston Post Road, Route 66, the Las Vegas Strip, and other classic roads, Okrant offers a realistic, yet optimistic view of how to keep these remnants of the '50s and '60s from turning off their lights forever.
