Viac o knihe
The book showcases nearly 200 miles of US Highway 1 in Virginia through vintage images, capturing the essence of communities along the route. Featuring photographs from over 50 years ago, it evokes nostalgia for a time when travelers frequented hand-pumped filling stations and local diners. Highlighting the highway's transformation, it details its concrete establishment in 1927 and the subsequent decline in business due to the rise of the interstate system in the 1950s, emphasizing the rich history of what is known as America's Main Street.
