It looked very nice, and I came very close to buying a copy. I felt a bit cheated though after flipping through nearly every single page and checking out the index and finding no pictures or mention of the Kahiki or any other grand Polynesian restaurant, so I set the book down without buying it. Maybe I missed something - but the book did look great overall, and I'm sure I will own a copy someday. Instead I bought a book titled 'American Signs - Form and Meaning on Route 66' which was chock-full of pictures and information about motel signs ..... a good companion for when you're doing your next tiki road trip.
