In the video, Wallis explains:
- What motivated him to write his eventual best-selling “Route 66: The Mother Road” book.
- His favorite stretch of Route 66 west of Albuquerque.
- A Route 66 story from near Owl Rock in New Mexico.
- How Tulsa stepped up its embrace of Route 66.
- How the song “(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66” was written.
