“The season’s most playful (and best titled) entry...[Ratay] vividly captures that relatively brief — but iconic — time before cheap air travel and Wi-Fi. With an eye for detail and a penchant for research that leads him down charming rabbit holes...Ratay succeeds in eliciting genuine emotion even as his comic voice steers the narrative clear of cheap sentimentality. This high-spirited romp down the byways of America is part social history, part memoir and a loving salute to that brief time when the wood-paneled family station wagon was king of the open road.” —New York Times Book Review Read the full review: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/books/review/holiday-travel.html . . . #richardratay #dontmakemepullover #nytbookreview #travelbooks #holidaybooks #giftguide #scribnerbooks #bookstagram (at Jean V.
