4.0 out of 5 stars
A unique photographic outlook is needed
Although this book may not contain the same type of pictures of route 66 that you might see in a magazine, they are cool and unique in their own way. There are a few pointless ones, but there are also a few that are very good snapshots. I picked it up at a used bookstore for $4....a good addition to my growing photo gallery.

Textless photo essay, for Route 66 completists only
This slim volume isn't really a book. It's a totally textless (not even captions) photo gallery taken by Mr. Baker along Route 66. In addition to the "roadside" images of motels, travelers and scenery one might expect in a Route 66 photo essay, there are several pointless photos of images on TV screens, and at least two too many shots of roadkill.

In addition to the "roadside" images of motels, travelers and scenery one might expect in a Route 66 photo essay, there are several pointless photos of images on TV screens, and at least two too many shots of roadkill. This book is no substitute for driving the highway -- or even for looking over the photo album of a friend who's driven Route 66.

Complete waste of money,

This review is from: 66/99: An American Road Trip on Route 66 (Eye Wink) (Hardcover)
It's just a book full of pictures. No words, no text, no anecdotes just various random pics of Americana on or around Route 66. Avoid.
