I enjoyed reading this adventure-filled travelogue. In the book “Coastal Missouri,” author John Drake Robinson makes it his personal mission, over the course of a dozen or so years, to drive every road in Missouri. Using his own brand of irreverent humor, he regales his readers with what he found, in culture, history and geologic wonder, while on this wild, long-term escapade. I especially appreciated reading his anecdotes about places that I have also visited in the 26 years of being a Missourian.
Three words that describe this book: Adventure, natural, wonders
You might want to pick this book up if: you want to learn more about Missouri history, culture, and geography, and if you enjoy travel adventures.
