Storyville, USA
by Dale Peterson
"What is a Storyville? Whether you're in Toast, North Carolina, Monkeys Eyebrow, Kentucky, or Winner, South Dakota, a Storyville is a real town you can find on a map, with a tale behind its quirky name.
Covering 20,000 miles of U.S. roads, Dale Peterson drove with his two children, Britt (age 14) and Bayne (age 11), from Start, Louisiana, to Deadhorse, Alaska, in search of small-town America in the "garage sale of the open highway." Along the way they explored open spaces, wild places, and back roads, and they met people who weren't afraid to talk to one another."--BOOK JACKET.
"Together, the Petersons discover the zany stories behind nearly sixty towns, guided by local storytellers and lots of curiosity."--BOOK JACKET.
