Blue MillerAbandoned Route 66 Arizona: Where the Road Came to an End (Abandoned Union)

If you love history and a different view of route 66 this is for you.Not a guidebook but gives ideas and really shows how important it is to capture the moment in this ever changing landscape.Blue has done a lot of research into recent (last 100 years) history which is already semi forgotten

Great history by Blue Miller on route 66 with a well written narrative and brilliant picturesWas on my bucket list to ride route 66 but illness stopped me, but this book shows me what I missed.Hope Blue does some other books like this one.Great read.

Ace book written and picturesBy a a very beautiful friendFamily loves it

I’m not a big book person. But this is a great book very well put together. 🥇

Superb book, beautiful photos and fascinating stories. Highly recommended

A visceral travelogue of the underbelly of Arizona's Route 66. These are the sights and locations that aren't in the shiny, picture-perfect tourist brochures, and are all the more fascinating for it.Decaying gas stations, long-deserted diners and derelict motels along this legendary highway are presented with beautiful photography and intriguing back stories of the communities around them.Thoroughly recommended for fans of American road culture and urban exploration, or for anyone planning a slightly unconventional itinerary for their Route 66 trip.

A combination of lovely photos and clear and concise history, this is a great read.

Bought as a present but a bit disappointed in quality of print and quantity .

This is a very good book and delivered in a timely fashion.

Wonderful book,I recommend it

This probably shouldn't be your introduction to Route 66 but it will be a valuable addition to your bookshelf if you intend to really explore the Route in Arizona or if you are curious as to why a one-time pass of the Route just isn't enough for some people. The nicely done photos provide a look at some of the layers of history that contributed to the story of the highway and Miller's words fill in some very interesting details of that history.

I've read many of the Arcadia and 'Abandoned' series of books and have always been very pleased. This one was quite a letdown. Seemed to not have any organization, and many paragraphs, pages, were just repeated again as long photo captions. These books do well because of the excellent collections of photos. More pics with captions needed, and less of the poor writing. Feel like I got a partial history of the Rt. 66 story in Arizona.
