Road Trip: Roadside America, from Custard`s Last Stand to the Wigwam Restaurant

With a focus on vernacular roadside architecture built between 1920 and the late 1960s, `Road Trip` is a time capsule of an extraordinary era and its roadside buildings, restaurants, gas stations, motels, and places of amusement, most of which are now long since gone.
