Take a Trip Across the Weird U.S.

A few years back, a friend of mine took the summer off and went on a crosscounty trip by car around the U.S. She checked out all kinds of unusual places and fascinating spots that aren’t popular tourist destinations.

She said the most interesting and fun part of the trip was learning about unusual spots, local legends and just plain weird stuff about the locations she was visiting.

Weird U.S. is a compilation of stories about such places all around the country. Dubbed “Your Travel Guide to America’s Local Legends and Best Kept Secrets,” this book is definitely interesting.

From the publishers of Weird NJ magazine, this book tells about all types of places that are off the beaten path. The book is available at Barnes & Noble and Amazon.com for about $15-$20. They also publish a variety of other books that are more specific destinations, such as Weird New England, Weird California, Weird Carolinas, etc.
