Publisher's summary

This book is the first volume of a collection of RoadRUNNER travelogues created by James T. Parks, which focus on locations and routes steeped in American history. Jim’s original articles are scattered piecemeal throughout various RoadRUNNER bimonthly issues, spanning more than a decade of time. With that in mind, we have updated information, where feasible, that appeared in the original articles. Listeners who are interested in how America came to be what it is today will find this integrated collection of historically themed adventures of particular interest, regardless of your mode of transportation.

The first volume focuses on Native American history and several revolutionary events that helped win our independence and build America’s industrial might. Come along with us, and enjoy these journeys through American history.

It's more than just a history book!

This isn't just a history book. James Parks takes you through driving routes (or motorcycle riding routes) in these historical places across America.

It's a great read for motorcyclists and non-riders alike! If you want to get inspiration for your next road trip, give this book a listen.

Good HX lesson

These trips sound like a good ride. I will listen again and take notes on which routes to take.

Discover History In Your Own Backyard

I found this very similar to the features in Roadrunner Magazine. it was very enjoyable and I'm sure to listen to it again; as well as to do more indepth research of routes and destinations before attempting them myself. You don't need to ride a motorcycle to enjoy this short but informative book.
