Summary: History relived
Comment: After reviewing the opinions of those who had this DVD set, I ordered The Marathon Tour-Route 66 and thoroughly enjoyed it. There is so much history in the interviews with people that are no longer living and those that are. What a treasure to have this DVD set. Granted it's not an entire DVD on driving the Mother Road, but there are many out there that provide that. To show the history of the Mother Road on DVD by those that helped make it the icon that it is, is overwhelming. I found the personal stories intriguing and an insight into how the 8 states that made up the Mother Road came about. I found out things I had not been able to read in books or other DVD's that I have on Route 66. There is enough of the Mother Road shown in this set of 5 DVD's that just whets your appetite to want to see and hear more. I highly recommend this set of DVD's to all roadies out there....enjoy the ride!

Summary: Book it
Comment: We have enjoyed these DVDs so much that we have booked the flights to go and drive some of the old road on our next holiday. They really give an insight into the mythical attraction of Route 66, and the history of the road. I can see us spending several holidays to cover the whole distance.

Summary: Not ENOUGH Route 66
Comment: I am like the reviewer below, there is too much interviewing(and they go on and on and on)and not enough showing of the old route and the sights along the way. I can't believe they wasted a great opportunity to show Route 66 in Hi-Def. This was truly a disappointment!

Summary: Too many interviews, Not enough Route 66 !
Comment: This is a very professional, nice looking DVD. The only problem I have is there is too much time spent intereviewing folks along the way. In fact, I'd guess 75 to 85% of the time, we are seeing old timers talking about the good old days, instead of seeing Route 66, which is why I bought the DVD.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best Pie on the Route
Comment: Not just a slice of goodness, this DVD collection is the whole pie! Enjoy with the World's Greatest Fried Chicken, a Ted Drewes Custard, blueberry/banana pie and the best scenery Americana can provide. All the Route 66 staples appear in this collection. Nostalgia is alive and well and on Route 66 The Marathon Tour.
