内容简介

In Style hailed Lucinda Lewis's Roadside America as "a ride through the history of the automobile-for those who lust for the open road." Time magazine said that her "elegant images of classic cars magically transport the reader to the intersection of Nostalgia Road and Dream Drive." Now, building on the success of that evocative celebration of America's love affair with the automobile, comes Roadside America: 365 Days -a year's worth of fabulous automobiles from all eras. Fans of vintage cars will surely find their favorites among the Packards and Cadillacs, woodies and pickups, Edsels and Bel-Airs, Corvettes and Thunderbirds, hot rods and muscle cars-all shown in glorious full color by one of the world's premier automobile photographers. Peppered with quotes from those who traveled the country's fabled roads in the days before interstates and chain restaurants, when the journey took longer but was richer for the experience, this irresistible volume-in the enormously popular format of Abrams' Earth from Above: 365 Days and The Universe: 365 Days -is the ideal gift book for every classic-car enthusiast and anyone interested in America's fabulous and fast-fading roadside culture.
