Drive I-95: Exit by Exit Info, Maps, History and Trivia

Road trips are back again, because by traveling in the security of your own car and visiting friendly small town America, it brings back the way America used to be and the way we would like it to be again.

To help those who travel up and down the East coast, Drive I-95 is a new style of guidebook. It combines colorful easy-to-follow pictorial maps and fun stories, eliminating the trepidation of a road trip down America s busiest highway. Travelers can look ahead exit-by-exit to see which motels and gas stations are coming up, where the radars trap are or where to stop for a good homemade meal.

The drive from New Hampshire to Miami or any section in-between will become more pleasant and less stressful by knowing where to find: 24 hour gas stations (and which ones have a mechanic!) and pharmacies, 800 numbers for motel chains, camp grounds, golf courses, places that allow pets, shopping malls, supermarkets, internet availability and even which radio stations to tune to.

This husband and wife team share stories of the road: history that happened on it, quirky museums worth a visit, Americana trivia, homey towns to explore, or places to run with the kids and pets. These can be read for entertainment during the drive and may entice motorists to stop, stretch their legs and discover someplace new. The maps and the fun stories of the road are useful for family travelers (Christmas, Spring break or summer), seniors, salesmen, truckers, campers and RVers, University students and their parents, military personnel and people who live and work near I-95

Sandra Phillips-Posner s first book, mart Shopping Montreal, quickly climbed onto the best seller list and remained there (with its annually updated editions) for the past 24 years. Having spent some calm years as an art teacher (with a Masters degree in Art and Education from Queens College/CUNY), Sandra s life took an interesting turn following this success. This native New Yorker was offered her own column, which ran for 15 years in Montreal s newspaper The Gazette. She has also become a regular on TV news and talk shows and talk radio and is a popular lecturer. Her shopping shlog at smartshoppingmontreal.com has already achieved more than a quarter of a million fan hits per month - in one city!

Stan Posner is actually an actuary who fell in love with both Sandra and computers. He has owned a computer consulting business since 1984, and has done work with such companies as Raytheon, Honda, Bombardier and Atomic Energy of Canada. He has also spent many years teaching actuarial math at Concordia University, after having graduated in Honors Math from McGill University. Stan is the GPS and computer guru for their Travelsmart publishing company. He is always on the cutting edge, and has turned this book into a phone app. Next up is making it interactive online: see the interviews, podcasts and YouTubes at drivei95.com.

Sandra and Stan's passion for learning and travel has taken them to 23 countries, 44 U.S. states and all 10 Canadian provinces. During and after their adventures, they report for travel radio, ezines and print media. They are anticipating turning the book into a fascinating travel TV show.

This book is the perfect combination of Stan s love of maps and his computer expertise together with Sandra s delightful insightful blurbs. After 32 years of marriage, and even after spending 10 hours a day for 8 weeks in the car together doing the research for this book, they are still crazy about each other. They have a way of making travel both informative and fun.
