Summary: In addition to the lavishly illustrated drives with full page descriptions, the editors have included additional lists of recommendations such as "The top 10 drivers' drives," "The top 10 spectacular bridges," The top 10 lakeside drives," "The top 10 music drives," and more. The drives vary. Some are routes through spectacular landscapes or leisurely journeys of discovery; some are short day trips; others are legendary long-distance odysseys. Additional online resources are recommended for each of the suggested trips and destinations.
