Recenzii
The book by Garrison and Levinson can be warmly recommended as a mine of information on US and early UK transportation development in a broadly based historical framework.
This book gives very thorough information on transportation history. Readers will find a bundle of detailed stories on the development of transportation systems in various (mostly US) cities, and on more general transport evolutions such as the decline in train ridership due to increasing car use in the middle of the 20th century, and peak car use in the present decade. To show how extensive this book is, it also has chapters on the rise and decline of telegraph and telephone use.
