Road Trip: Roadside America
From Custard’s Last Stand to the Wigwam Restaurant
Richard Longstreth

With a focus on vernacular roadside architecture built between 1920 and the late 1960s, the golden age of the American road, Richard Longstreth’s Road Trip is a time capsule and snapshot, taken primarily in the early 1970s, of an extraordinary era and its roadside buildings, its restaurants, gas stations, motels, and places of amusement, many of which are now gone.
