Eight states, nearly four thousand kilometers long, from Chicago to Los Angeles. U.S. Route 66, established in 1926, connected the industrial East Coast to the shores of California. A black ribbon winding through plains, deserts, and cities.
Route 66 quickly outgrew its role as a simple road to become a cultural myth: celebrated by Steinbeck and Kerouac, immortalized in songs by Nat King Cole, Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen, and brought to life on screen in films like Cars, it has become the legend of America itself.
