Only the theme has changed. In the 1880's, the frontiersmen were cowboys, cattle ranchers and railroaders who made Holbrook the center of ranch country. The 1898 courthouse, now on the National Register of Historic Places, is the centerpiece of town. In the 1930s through the 1950s, the "frontiersmen" were travelers of Route 66, known as The Mother Road and The Main Street of America. This narrow strip of asphalt was a symbol of hope for farmers fleeing the dust bowl and soldiers starting a new life after World War II. Today Holbrook is the frontier for modern explorers. The spectacular beauty and spirituality of Indian Country beckons travelers to pull off Interstate 40. When they do, they step into a different space and time, where ancient traditions and values provide a deep and rich perspective on life. Holbrook is a great home base for a tour of Navajo, Hopi and Apache country. Holbrook, Arizona, is just 28 miles from the Petrified Forest National Park.
