This book is a visual history of the many recreational amenities that sprang up in Chittenden County, Vermont starting with the dawn of the car culture in the 1930s. It spans five decades of snack bars, drive-in movie theaters, motels, stores, roller skating rinks, bowling alleys, and other places where several generations of locals, college students, and visitors went to have a good time. With a few exceptions, the 120 places covered in the book are all gone, so the book provides a nostalgic look back for those old enough to have enjoyed them. For younger readers it will provide a window back in time showing some of the places where their parents or grandparents may have gone to have fun. There is a short history of each place, and at least one photograph, many of which have not been seen before.
