Produktbeschreibung
A doorway into yesteryear of some the abandoned buildings and businesses along the abandoned Route 66 Arizona. When Route 66 came to Arizona, the state was less than fifteen years old. But Arizona embraced the Mother Road, clinging to it long after any other state and then making sure that the world didn't forget it. Today that heritage is marked along the roadside by abandoned places which all tell a story, a narrative picked out in trading posts and motels and ordinary people. To many travelers, these stores, diners and motels were a lifeline; to the people who owned them, they were, quite simply, their life. In an effort to ensure that we don't forget this recent history--the tales that make up the past, the buildings that provide us with a doorway into yesteryear-- Abandoned Route 66 Arizona records some of those places along the Mother Road before they finally fade away and take their stories and secrets with them.

Autorenporträt
Blue Miller is a British journalist who has been fascinated by abandoned buildings since she was a small child. She started travelling Route 66 in 2005 and has since been documenting the everyday stories of the Mother Road through her Never Quite Lost blog, as well as debunking some oft-repeated legends. Her articles on Route 66 have been published in a number of international magazines, as well as providing historical information for Route 66 state associations. If not travelling, Blue lives on the east coast of England where she is a professional motorcycle journalist when not being bullied by her cats and Labrador.
