HOW TO USE THESE MAPS:
The 23 strip maps which (will soon) follow should be used with the eastbound and westbound odometer charts (also not yet available) to help the Lincoln Highway traveler navigate the different sections of the Lincoln Highway route across Ohio. It is understood that the endpoint towns of each section are generally the largest towns on the route, and thus offer the most complete tourist facilities, including gas, food, and lodging. The 1990 populations of the largest cities and towns on the 1928 route are listed below, plus the populations of the four largest communities on the bypassed routes. For convenience in navigation, the author recommends inserting the appropriate eastbound or westbound odometer chart opposite the corresponding strip map, eliminating the annoyance of flipping pages from one part of the book to the other.
