Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing Route 66 through Missouri represents one of America's favorite exercises in nostalgia, but a discerning glance among the roadside weeds reveals the kind of sordid history that doesn't appear on postcards. Along with vintage cars and picnic baskets, Route 66 was a conduit humming with contraband and crackling with the gunplay of folks like Bonnie and Clyde, Jesse James and the Young brothers. It was also the preferred byway of lynch mobs, murderous hitchhikers and mad scientists. Stop in at places like the Devil's Elbow and the Steffleback Bordello on this trip through the more treacherous twists of the Mother Road.

Download or read book Route 66 in Missouri written by Joe Sonderman and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Route 66 is the "Main Street of America," heralded in song and popular culture. It took a maze of different routes through St. Louis before slashing diagonally across the "Show-Me State" through the beauty of the Ozarks. In between, there are classic motels, diners, tourist traps, and gas stations bathed in flashing and whirling neon lights. Natural wonders include crystal-clear streams, majestic bluffs, and wondrous caverns. Roadside marketers concocted legends about Jesse James, painted advertisements on barns, lived with deadly snakes, or offered curios such as pottery and handwoven baskets. That spirit is alive today at the Wagon Wheel and the Munger-Moss, the Mule, Meramec Caverns, and Ted Drewes Frozen Custard, just to name a few. Their stories are included here.

Download or read book Farewell Route 66 written by Michael Lund and published by BeachHouse Books. This book was released on 2017 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this book might suggest that I'm saying goodbye to the central subject of my fiction. That is not the case. A fifth and final book in this At Home and Away novel series is in progress because, like the rebirth of the Mother Road as "Historic Route 66," the story of America is always adding new chapters connected to its past. This five-volume novel series chronicles an American family during times of peace and war from 1915 to 2015. The first book, Route 66 Sweetheart, is set mostly in and around Rutherford, New Jersey, during the 1930s. Route 66 Dreamer features the son of a Swedish immigrant who pursues his dreams of American success in Kansas and Missouri in the early 1940s. However, in both books some family members move away to distant countries and unexpected challenges. The third volume, Route 66 Looking-glass, takes place primarily in Missouri in the mmid-1960s, but characters also travel far from home and familiar experiences. Farewell, Route 66 follows another generation of family members, this time from Missouri to Southeast Asia where many learn, sadly, "how to not tell a war story." In the final volume of the series, Route 66 Redux, the next generation travels to Europe and the Middle East to understand their identity in a multi-national community.
Download or read book Route 66 Looking Glass written by Michael Lund and published by BeachHouse Books. This book was released on 2014 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Route 66 Looking-glass, the third volume in the series At Home and Away, is set in mid-1960's America, a time of turmoil for the nation and of challenge for the Lindbloom family. The father (the "Route 66 Dreamer" of Volume Two) and the mother (the "Route 66 Sweetheart" of Volume One) worry that the American definition of success has been constricted to material prosperity. And the ideals of "the Mother Road" appear illusory when reflected against the realities of injustice in the nation and of war abroad. Michael Lund grew up in Rolla, Missouri, and now lives and teaches in Virginia. He is the author of ten previous novels and two collections of short stories, How to Not Tell a War Story and Eating with Veterans (forthcoming)
