5.0 out of 5 stars Full-color time-capsules of a vanishing Route 66 roadside., June 19, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Return to Route 66: Postcards (Paperback)

"In the same spirit of Dorothea Lange, Walker Evans, John Vachon, and other renowned photographers of the Farm Security Administration project, Graham has recorded full-color time-capsules of a vanishing Route 66 roadside. For armchair fans of America's two-lane backroads and connoisseurs of the old roads, she presents a tasty platter of treats, including bold compositions of colorful neon, crumbling motel signs, forgotten landmarks, and favorite destinations."
