DIVThere is perhaps no better visual record of Route 66’s iconic sites than the thousands of illustrated and photographic postcards that have been produced over the years to promote the Mother Road’s motels, hotels, tourist traps, trading posts, bustling burgs, greasy spoons, and natural wonders. This massive collection gathers together more than 400 of the finest examples of postcard art from Route 66’s golden age: the 1930s through the mid-1960s, an era before long-distance car travel was largely supplanted by the airlines./divDIV/divDIVRoute 66 historian Joe Sonderman has curated the very best out of his 20,000-card archive to document a journey down the Mother Road through the decades, state-by-state from east to west. Visit landmark stops like the Rock Village Court, the Meramec Caverns, Mule Trading Post, and Wigwam Village in cities that include Chicago, Springfield, Amarillo, Tucumcari, Flagstaff, Barstow, Santa Monica, and many, many more./divDIV/divDIVThe fruit of Sonderman’s labor is the definitive book collection of Route 66 postcards.

Postcards from across The Pond began as a means of keeping in touch with the folks back home in the USA, but it soon expanded into a humorous commentary on British life by an accidental expat. "Laugh out loud funny regardless of which side of the pond you call home... Bill Bryson move over, there's a new American expat in town with a keen sense of humor." Jeff Yeager, author of 'The Ultimate Cheapskate's Road Map To True Riches' "A very funny book indeed. I was literally laughing out loud whilst reading this book; not only did I enjoy it, but I am now craving more." Steve Gillen, moderator of www.ukusforum.com "I savored the bubbling flavor of this Yankee reaction to Saxon country in the form of perky postcard-style epistles." Eileen Swift, former syndicated travel writer for Newsday "Not only fascinating for Anglophiles who've only visited the 'motherland' on vacation, but very, very funny, too. Joe Queenan and Bill Bryson...watch out!" Diana Burrell, co-author of 'The Renegade Writer', www.hailbritannia.com "A lovely, quixotic, affectionate attempt to bring together those 'two nations divided by a common language.' A must for travellers in both directions." Gordon Astley, presenter of BBC Southern Counties Radio "Whether you've been in the UK for decades, or are just about to embark on your journey, sit back and enjoy Mike Harling's unique, entertaining descriptions of his life across the pond." Toni Hargis, author of 'Rules Britannia', www.rulesbritannia.com Michael Harling grew up in rural Columbia County in Upstate New York. He has been published in various newspapers and magazines including: The Writer's Digest, The National Lampoon and The Journal of Forensic Identification.

Walker Evans said in his 1958 introduction to Robert Frank’s The Americans, 'For the thousandth time, it must be said that pictures speak for themselves, wordlessly, visually, or they fail.' The images revolutionized post-war American photography. With their candid images of men and women from all classes and walks of life, the photographs presented a very different story than that portrayed by the wholesome caricature of midcentury prosperity pervading American photography at the time. Although initially dismissed by his peers for his pioneering work, Frank was ultimately credited with changing the course of the art form, and his photography holds a secure status in the history of twentieth-century art. And he did all this without words. It seems appropriate then – and not a little overdue – that Jonathan Day has created a book that expounds, explores and examines Frank’s work pictorially. Taking Frank’s iconic images as his point of reference, Day shot new photographs that commented on the road and contemporary America. Here, these images are paired with critical commentary that details the aspects of the work that are visually expounded and explained in Day’s complementary images. A visual entryway to the photographs and themes of this iconic book in the history of photography, Postcards from the Road represents an innovative, carefully considered departure from standard photographic textbooks.
