About this product

Product Information

Stretching From Chicago To Cairo, the Egyptian Trail was one of the earliest "improved" roadways in Illinois. Dating to 1915, it was the longest road in the state, running four hundred miles through twenty counties and more than sixty towns. The Egyptian Trail was the brainchild of two Mattoon men, Dr. Iverson Lumpkin and Ernest B. Tucker, who realized that the southern reaches of the state should be linked with Chicago along the same path as the Illinois Central Railroad. Though long-forgotten today, the trail also served as the basic template for the route of Interstate 57. Author James R. Wright takes a journey down one of the most important roadways in the annals of Illinois transportation history.

very unacceptable experience. item never arrived. i initially contacted seller . i cant rate a item that i dont have, shipping time cant be rated also. refunding the cost is a small part to receiving a wanted item.
