Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Unlike today’s interstate highway system, the earlier routes offered ever-changing scenes and roadside attractions. Although the Lincoln Highway crosses the entire country from New York City to San Francisco, the route it follows through Pennsylvania offers some of the most diverse and beautiful scenery. From the relatively flat terrain in the eastern part of the state to the mountains in the west, the highway passes through large cities and small towns, and almost all of these areas offered something to the motoring public. The popularity of the automobile gave rise to some of the highway’s greatest attractions, such as Bill’s Place and the S. S. Grand View Ship Hotel, which was destroyed by fire in 2001. Along Pennsylvania’s Lincoln Highway is a trip back into time, and it recalls the days when getting to a destination was half the fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Along Pennsylvania's Lincoln Highway, November 14, 2007
The history is well researched and very informing. The pictures are well chosen for the subject matter and very pleasing to the eye. This is a great book for anyone interesting in seeing the way it was.
