Route 66 in Kansas (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

There are only 13.2 miles of Route 66 in Kansas, but the Sunflower State packs in as much history and adventure per mile as any of the eight Route 66 states. Route 66 in Kansas includes the wild tales from the days of "e;Red Hot Street"e; and the "e;First Cowtown in Texas."e; Blood was spilled here during the Civil War and when workers in the mines fought for their rights. Travelers will meet a beloved character from the motion picture Cars, cross a rare Rainbow Bridge, and see classic scenes along the Main Streets. Kansas was completely bypassed and was not even mentioned in the Bobby Troup song "e;(Get Your Kicks) on Route 66,"e; but it would be a major mistake to pass it by today. It deserves to be experienced slowly--with the top down and the radio up.
