Review by Scout Girl, 2010-08-04
I very rarely rave about a travel book but The Most Scenic Drives in America deserves it. This book is beautifully put together with maps, photographs and research on the drives. I have taken most of the drives in the Midwest and East Coast and can't wait to explore more parts of the country outlined in the book. I really like the way the book is laid out by region and each individual trip/drive includes an overview map of the drive with recommendations for the "must see" stops along the route and offers up options for worthwhile side trips if you have extra time in the area.
The only downside of the book is it's size, it is definitely meant to be a coffee table book not to actually take with you. But this hasn't stopped me from hauling it with me across the country!
Review by W Johnston, 2010-07-15
I just want to applaud the authors for their thoroughness in not only creating a book that inspires a nationwide exploration of America, but also in the way that the book is logically and easily organized. The book seeks to include relevant information that can be used for the begnning of a road adventure, but doesn't bog the book down in excessive details. A note to potential purchasers: this is NOT a book of elaborate photographs. While some of the photos are very inspiring, they are merely teasers to encourage the reader to go out and make the discoveries themselves. I'm glad I purchased this book. My parents enjoyed looking through it so much that I gave them my copy and purchased another for myself.

This book makes you want to get into your car immediately and start driving. The areas in this country to explore and discover. Wherever you are, there is a trip to make it much more interesting. I loved the special points with their descriptions. It trully is "America the Beautiful"!

This book is being used for planning our motorcycle trip. We are leaving Florida for Chicago to meet up with others then ride Rt 66 to California. Coming back we will hit Las Vegas, Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon and lots of scenic rides across the country. This book will be a great planning tool.
