Phil White | Carol White
1 A wonderful book for planning to see our country
I really enjoyed the insights the Whites offer on how to leave home for a year and see the US. Their approach to planning and experiencing their travels are well thought out and presented. They truly experienced a trip of a lifetime and offer ideas that are truly inspiring and take it from a dream to a realistic plan.
2 But This Book!
With Road Trip Dream, Phil and Carol White show Boomers everywhere that there is life beyond the empty nest. The book is chock full of practical advice, wit and tales of the charm of small town America. It would make a great gift for any couple thinking of launching their own "blue highway" adventure.
3 Superbly organized compendium of "trip tested" instruction
The collaboration of the husband and wife team of Phil and Carol White, Live Your Road Trip Dream: Travel For A Year For The Cost Of Staying Home is a superbly organized compendium of "trip tested" instruction, information and advice. Chapters address how to build a travel budget, break the news of a lengthy voyage to family and friends, plan a route, stay in touch while on the go, handle emergencies, as well as an engaging narration of the trip the authors took fill this compendium of practical advice and enjoyable armchair traveler stories. Recommended reading for anyone considering an extended road trip of their own.
4 Great retirement gift !
Everyone talks about taking a trip like this someday! Here is an A toZ "how to" book full of great tips and a delightful read. I have purchased several as retirement gifts and they were a hit!
5 Excellent Detail and Wit to boot
This book is great. It has so much detail on how to go about planning and executing your own road trip. I plan on using much of the advice when I plan my around-the-country NFL trip. I also enjoyed the authors' witty dialogue mixed in with the wisdom such an excursion imparts.
I highly recommend this book.
