What was the Yellow Book?
The Yellow Book is so named due to the color of its cover. Officially known as "General Location of National System of Interstate Highways, Including All Additional Routes at Urban Areas Designated in September, 1955," this book provides the original plan for the Interstate Highway System. The yellow book featured a map of the country along with urban insets to document the location of spur and loop routes.
