The Most Scenic Drives in America
by Reader's Digest
A one-of-a-kind trip planner, an invaluable on-the-road reference, and an album of photographs -- an "all-inclusive package" travelers will treasure. This spectacular guide to traveling in America by car provides 120 different itineraries, covering every part of the country. Whether one is embarking on a 200-mile tour of a region, looking for a more pleasant route to a familiar destination, or out for a day-long spin close to home, its detailed maps of routes make trips anything but routine. From a trip along Maine's rocky coast to island-hopping in the Florida Keys, to expeditions through the Green Mountains, the Blue Ridge Mountains, and other high points, "The Most Scenic Drives In America" offers 41 great ways to explore the eastern United States. Travelers to the country's mid-section can journey' along the Mississippi without missing a turn, catch glimpses of longhorns and pronghorns on the Nebraska Prairie, and get a close-up look at Mount Rushmore from the comfort of their cars. The wonders of the Rocky Mountain region -- from the Grand Tetons to the Grand Canyon -- are revealed in more than two dozen drives that bypass busy highways and take voyagers to out-of-the-way attractions. Dazzling waterfalls, a volcano cloaked in ice, and a town overflowing with colorful butterflies are just some of the treats in store for those who follow one of the 24 suggested drives through the American west. Each drive is designed for ultimate flexibility, so that travelers can follow the whole route or merely a "leg". Succinct descriptions bring recommended stops into focus, with information about the best places to eat, sleep, and enjoy an adventure, a view, or an historical site.
Touring Vermont's Scenic Roads
by Kenneth Aiken
A wonderful state to explore, Vermont is quintessential New England: curving roads, grand vistas, lovely farms and villages, historic sites, and rolling mountains.In addition, you'll encounter minimal traffic, plenty of scenic turnoffs, and absolutely no billboards. Here, a native Vermonter guides us through the entire state -- from windswept peaks to lush farmlands from the beautiful Champlain Valley to the lakes of the Northeast Kingdom. Fascinating histories and anecdotes accompany the precise road directions, giving us a sense of what Vermont truly is. The author fully appreciates that when on the road, different people have different interests: "A sport-touring motorcyclist wants twisting roads, climbing through gulfs and over mountain ridges; someone in a thirty-foot RV doesn't. One person wants to stop at every antiques shop or tourist attraction; another wants to drive through shaded woods and rolling farmland. This book tells you what a map doesn't -- what the road is like and what you'll see when traveling on it."
