Book description
A fun-filled look at the history and attractions of California's legendary Highway 101.Now the road has the utilitarian designation of U.S. Route 101, but originally it had a name of romance and mystery--El Camino Real, or the King's Highway, built on the trail pioneered by the Spanish friars and marked by mission bells on the roadside. Illustrated throughout with historic photographs, Highway 101: The History of El Camino Real tells the picturesque story of this great highway and the restaurants, motels, gas stations, and roadside attractions that made it memorable to generations of travelers.From Disneyland to the historic Madonna Inn to the Avenue of the Giants, Highway 101 catalogs the great landmarks along the road, plus the fascinating personalities, from Dorothea Lange to Jelly Roll Morton to Cecil B. DeMille, whose lives intersected with the history of the route.A colorful history of Americana, commerce, travel, and fun, Highway 101 captures the magic of the open road.
