Without a doubt, some of the most interesting places are those that are on the roads less traveled. These photographs attempt to tell the story of those places but can never replace those actual pieces of history experienced in person.

I would have ideally liked to do a square book for this project but, most of my pictures are rectangular instead of square so I think the Large Landscape book will work better. I would like to work with premium paper on this book as well and make it a hard back book. It will definitely have text so I can tell the story of these pictures, the font will probably look like a font of a handwriting style. I am still debating whether I want to do a purely black and white book, only color, or both. The print standards look like they may only do one or the other. I want the book to look nostalgic but some of the colored pictures are really beautiful as well. I would appreciate any feedback ..thanks.

In last week's critique many of you said that some of the pictures I took were touristy.  
I have decided that maybe the pictures aren't coming across the way I would like them to
so instead of taking candids of these places, I am instead going to take pictures of places on the
National Historic Register.  These will be simple pictures to document the places and in my book I 
will tell the whole background story of each place.
