The Complete Katy Trail Guidebook (Show Me Series)

Plot

"This guidebook covers the many distinctive towns along Missouri's Katy Trail State Park, a 200-mile long 'Rails to Trails' project. The Katy represents the longest completed section in the country. Further construction is currently underway and the trail will eventually cross the U.S. from coast to coast. The Katy Trail follows the Missouri River through many small river bottom communities that echo the 19th century. The trail passes through the world's "breadbasket" of agriculture and Missouri's legendary wine country. This guidebook includes handy service information for each town, as well as maps, photographs, and profiles of some one-of-a-kind individuals you may meet along the way. Longer stories included for rainy day armchair odysseys. If you've ever wondered who the goddess that adorns our capitol is or how Rocheport got its name or even how to make blueberry wine, this book is for you."--Page 4 of cover
