It’s not too early to start thinking about holiday gift buying, and for your favorite traveler the beautiful coffee table book about the Unites States would be a terrific choice.
The book is a celebration of the 50 states and the US Territories, and features a combination of photos and content, organized by state. You’ll also find regional information, road trips, history, culture and traditions, architecture, and the must-see and quirky spots across the country. If you love road trips, you’ll enjoy the chapter highlighting the top road trips in the country, including the famous Route 66.
I’m hoping to eventually visit all 50 of the states, and this is a great reminder of what I’m missing in North Dakota, Missouri, and Tennessee.
With over 400 photos, this is a book you’ll want to pick up and leaf through time and again, and as you do you’ll see both how diverse we are. . . yet how much we have in common.
The USA Book is published by Lonely Planet, and is available through them, Amazon ($28.79), as well as at your favorite online or neighborhood book store.
