Encyclopedia for RVers II

ld. For the next 15 years they worked in the south in the winter and north in the summer. In 1985 they set up a home base in Texas so they could devote more time to their Escapee Club, which they had founded seven years earlier. Now in their 70s, the Peterson's continue to travel and to spread the word about the exciting world of RV travel.

In "Encyclopedia for RVers II" they reveal an incredible amount of information that took them years to learn. For the reader, the learning curve will be considerably shorter.
