Meticulously researched and impressively written,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Carriage Trade: Making Horse-Drawn Vehicles in America (Studies in Industry and Society) (Hardcover)
Meticulously researched and impressively written, The Carriage Trade: Making Horse-Drawn Vehicles In America by Thomas A. Kinney (Assistant Professor of History, Bluefield College, Virginia), is part of the outstanding Johns Hopkins University Press "Studies in Industry and Society" series. Professor Kinney offers a comprehensive and superbly organized history of the transportation manufacturing industry that preceded the coming of the automobile from its beginnings in American shops down to the final conference in 1926 of the Carriage Builders National Association which marked the triumph of the horseless carriage over that of its horse-drawn predecessor. Informed and informative, The Carriage Trade is an impressive and seminal work of original scholarship enhanced with extensive notations, and is especially recommended for inclusion into an academic library's American History Studies reference collection and the supplemental reading list for students of America's involvement in an evolving transporation industry.
