Driving a half-century old car, Denny Gibson covers the eastern half of the century old route as part of the Lincoln Highway Association Centennial Tour. Then, after an anniversary celebration at the highway's midpoint in Kearney, Nebraska, the trip continues on to the west coast with a smaller group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe route followed is, as close as practical, the Lincoln Highway's original 1913 alignment. The car is a 1963 Plymouth Valiant convertible. It has a fancy push button transmission but the luxury stops there. No power steering, no power brakes, no power top, and no air conditioning. Problems are not quite as scarce as power accessories but there are not many. The old Plymouth carries Gibson from his Ohio home to Times Square to San Francisco then back home again. Much of the return is along the Route 66 corridor with occasional stops on that historic road as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is illustrated with more than 150 black and white photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Denny's friendly writing makes you feel like you're along for the adventure of a lifetime, with fun surprises around every bend and all the bumps in the road already smoothed out.\" Brian Butko, author, \u003ci\u003eGreetings from the Lincoln Highway\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDenny Gibson is a retired software engineer living on the outskirts of Cincinnati, Ohio.
