This guide to small museums and other roadside attractions across the USA was published in 1988, so things may have changed a bit since then. The author is fond of making truly atrocious puns!
Best picture - the Boll Weevil Monument in Enterprise, Alabama (page 70)
Most eccentric - the Cypress Knees Museum in Palmdale, Florida (page 81)
My favourite (& one of the worst puns) - the Tree That Owns Itself in Athens, Georgia (page 100)
Would most like to visit - the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California (page 233)… (plus d'informations)
