520 When TV celebrity Dinah Shore sang "See the USA in your
Chevrolet," 1950s America took her to heart. Every summer,
parents piled the kids in the back seat, threw the luggage
in the trunk, and took to the open highway. Chronicling
this innately American ritual, Susan Rugh presents a
cultural history of the American middle-class family
vacation from 1945 to 1973, tracing its evolution from the
establishment of this summer tradition to its decline.
