The Complete History of Wheeled Transportation (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781615307012)

While the wheel itself has changed little over time, it has immeasurably altered the nature of transportation. This insightful volume examines the various wheeled conveyances that have been instrumental in agriculture and commerce such as carts and wagons, as well as those that have facilitated human travel including coaches, bicycles, cars, and buses. Also explored is the evolution of roads, as they have expanded to accommodate various modes of wheeled transportation.
