A RIDE ALONG THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY
THURSDAY, JUNE 2 @ 7:00PM & 12:00AM
The Lincoln Highway is just a great American road. It was a route first mapped out by the original Lincoln Highway Association in 1913 as the best transcontinental highway. It was the fastest, smoothest and most direct path from New York City to San Francisco. And people have followed and learned to love that route ever since.
Now producer/narrator Rick Sebak (who has made PBS favorites like “A Hot Dog Program” and “A Flea Market Documentary”) has put together a new travelogue celebrating the history and enduring charms of the Lincoln. He talks with highway historians, with motor court operators, restaurateurs, travelers, members of the new Lincoln Highway Association, all sorts of folks who know and help preserve the highway and what’s along it.
