In the revised and updated Backroads & Byways of Virginia, you'll find 19 itineraries for scenic drives, day trips, and longer adventures for the whole family. Follow the Crooked Road Heritage Music Trail; hit all the points in the historic triangle of Jamestown, Williamsburg, and Yorktown; and wend your way along the Blue Ridge Parkway through some of the loveliest scenery the region has to offer. Visit Mount Vernon, where George Washington really slept; witness the genius of Thomas Jefferson at Monticello. If you're looking for great places to go beyond the DC suburbs and Virginia Beach, reach for this guide. Interstate highways will bring you through Virginia, but only the backroads will bring Virginia to you! |
