Ride along with author Tom Cotter and photographer Michael Alan Ross as they pilot their Ford Bronco/Airstream Basecamp combination 8, 881 miles along the lower 48’s back roads and byways.
Tom Cotter has spent decades ferreting out lost “barn find” collector cars. The process has made him an ardent road tripper, logging thousands of miles every year on America’s back roads. Previous journeys have traced Route 66 in his 1939 Ford Woody wagon and followed the Lincoln highway coast to coast behind the wheel of a 1926 Model T.
Cotter’s journeys led him to wonder:
What could be the most epic American road trip? The answer:
Key West, Florida, to Deadhorse, Alaska , its thousands of miles recounted in
America’s Greatest Road Trip. Cotter and Ross drove across the country, through British Columbia and the Yukon, and finally through Alaska to the literal end of the road. Ross documented their road time in thousands of photographs.
Along the way, the pair met fellow road trippers, adventurers, small-town Americans, world travelers, and
rolled through an ever-changing geography from the
Gulf of Mexico to the
Mississippi Delta to the
Great Plains and
Mountain states through the
Northwest Passage and finally several hundred miles of
Alaska’s challenging ALCAN Highway .
Cotter’s observations of Two-Lane America are complemented by
Ross’s beautiful photography capturing both the sweep and the detail of life off the beaten path.
Join them on their once-in-a-lifetime journey—you’ll be glad you came along for the ride.
