| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Before numbered highways and interstate travel, there were auto trails. The early part of the 20th century saw a rise in need for a better way to transport goods and travel across the country more easily. This book looks at original auto trails that evolved into numbered highways throughout the U.S., including Dixie Highway, Jackson Highway and the Ozark Trail. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
