The sixth and final volume of the western
state-by-state Lincoln Highway series is now in print. The 211-page
deluxe hardcover, with 120 photos and 128 full-page maps, covers all
four legs of the Lincoln Highway, 1913-1928. The text portion gives
a complete history of the road, including a driving-hiking guide.
The northern route starts just west of Verdi, Nev., loops over the
Dog Valley Road and on over Donner Pass—then down the slope to
Sacramento. The main road extends southwest of the capital, through
Stockton and Oakland, then across the bay to the Western Terminus at
San Francisco.
The southern road extends from the south shore of Lake Tahoe to
Sacramento. The 1928 version proceeds southwest from Sacramento
through Vacaville, Fairfield, Vallejo, and on to Berkeley.
