Author Tom Snyder was an early advocate of a Route 66 revival and his 1990 "Route 66 Traveler's Guide & Roadside Companion" for St. Martin's Press was the first guidebook to the old road written in more than forty years, as well as the first to map the route since its decertification in 1985. He lives on the West Coast, dividing his time among British Columbia, Washington, and California.
More than two decades after the original publication of Route 66 Traveler’s Guide, Tom Snyder invites travellers to hit the road again—with a fully revised and updated edition of America’s favourite Route 66 road guide
