"Having ridden on the highway as a boy, I didn't really have much of an opinion of it, except that something seemed different from other highways on which my family drove. This book gave me a better appreciation of the Merritt Parkway's uniqueness and steps taken to keep it from being the same sterile plain concrete bands of superhighways we have today. The photos reinforce and enlarge upon the issues of design described in the book. A very pleasant read that took me back to my childhood."
