What is Journeys to the past : a traveler's guide to Indiana state historical markers about?

Indiana has played an important role in the collective history of the United States. <br> Driving across the Hoosier state, motorists can connect with its rich history by stopping to read the inscribed roadside tablets that mark the sites where history was made. <br> These posted roadside markers of "historical literature" allows us to know what has happened in the past, where and when. and to whom. <br> This regional marker guidebook allows us to be traveling "road scholars" as well as home bound, arm chair "scholars in residence." <br> Inside this guide, intrepid explorers will discover the text to nearly 500 roadside markers that have been installed and maintained by the Indiana Historical Bureau. <br> The easy-to-follow highway directions will guide excursionists to each marker's location. To aid in your search, Indiana's official state highway map and Delorme's Indiana Atlas are recommended. Also, there is a mix of graphics to add visual interest to the pages. Two separate indexes list the markers alphabetically by county and by marker title. <br> In short, the profuse story of Indiana's people, places and events fill the pages. <br> History surrounds us wherever we go.
