Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Road, commonly known as US 40, is one of Indiana's most historic transportation routes. Construction on the road began in 1828, and it played an integral part in shaping the history of the Hoosier State. Humphrey shows that, though interstate travel has somewhat made US 40 'the road less traveled, ' it is still a treasured landmark, filled with thriving communities and historical aspects for travelers to appreciate. -- adapted from back cover.
