"What a delight! The text is lovely, but the photographs by Karen West (especially the ones of the trailers) are worth the price of the book. A fabulous trip down memory lane!" -- Dewitt Jones "National Geographic photographer and keynote speaker"

"Route 66 had a homecoming of sorts in 2015 when a caravan of bold and audacious modern-day Amelia Earharts piloted their travel trailers... from Chicago to the Pacific Ocean. Their legendary flight plan paved the way for any woman who's ever had leave-it-all-behind fantasies, which is pretty much every woman I've ever met, me included." -- MaryJane Butters "author of Glamping with MaryJane"
"Sisters Get Their Kicks on Route 66 is the scrapbook-style story of 300 Sisters who traveled the Mother Road from Chicago to the Santa Monica Pier. Buckle up and join them on the highway of exploration and sisterhood. Their rules are simple: no men, no pets, no kids, and... be nice. What could be better?" -- Douglas Keister "author of Teardrops and Tiny Trailers"
