Product Description
U.S. 30 travels portions of the Lincoln Highway and Sauk Trail across Northern Illinois, through Joliet and Aurora to the Mississippi River. Much of this route was involved in the Black Hawk War, which shaped the development of the towns and farms. The highway crosses the Fox River Valley at Aurora, and the Rock River at Dixon and Sterling, where settlements thrived with the benefits of water power. The histories of the Native Americans, French and Spanish Explorers, European immigrants, and the railroads are richly intertwined as you explore this installment of the American Auto Trails series.
