For fans of weird, wacky attractions and "out of the box" travel, this book is likely to become a trusted travel companion.

Take it with you whenever you travel in the US, for there's something weird and wonderful in just about every corner of our country. Each entry comes complete with contact information, address, general directions, museum highlights and informative photographs.

These museums will amaze, amuse, inspire and mystify you. The subjects range an encyclopedic gamut -- from the Banana Museum to the Museum of Dentistry to Marvin Johnson's Gourd Museum to the Museum of Questionable Medical Devices and lots of others.

If you want to take an uncharted side trip during your travels, take this book as your guide. You'll never know what you might find.
