U.S. 20, a two-lane highway, begins in Boston and travels 3,365 miles westward to the Pacific Ocean.
Volume I of this series traced U.S. 20 across Massachusetts. Volume II crossed Eastern New York to South Onondaga. Volume III follows U.S. 20 through Skaneatales, and the first fantastic finger lake, through Auburn, hometown of William Seward, Lincoln’s Secretary of State, through Seneca Falls, site of the Women’s Rights Museum, through Waterloo, birthplace of Memorial Day, to Depew where five railroads split the village in half, and there was “a wrong side of the tracks.” In Depew U.S. 20 turns south and parallels Lake Erie through Fredonia, site of the first U.S. gas well, through Westfield, “Grape Juice Capital of the World,” to State Line where the Methodist Church straddles the New York/ Pennsylvania border.
On this journey through Western New York, the traveler will be surprised at the history he/she will learn – many things never taught in a U.S. History class
