DESCRIPTION:
"A Beautiful, Entertaining Book, Unmatched Appeal!" according to Matthew McGinley (real name™). "America on Wheels: The First 100 Years: 1896-1996" is my favorite automobile book, and also is the companion to the PBS special. Skillfully written by Frank Coffey and Joseph Layden, it has the most beautiful, full color photographs in a single work that I have seen in the last 12 months of my research. From the early days of the auto. "From Duryea To Dodge, here's the American auto history." according to A Customer. This book, the companion to the 1996 PBS series of the same name, gives a straightfoward accounting of the evolution of the automobile in this country. From the first baby steps of the Duryea Auto Wagon to the giant tracks of the latest Jeep Grand Cherokee, America on Wheels chronicles America's tempestuous love affair with their cars . "the television show" according to Rock lady. I still want the DVD of this exceptional show made and released!! I have been trying to acquire it for years!!!!! The book is complemented most fully by the show. One can only hope
Featuring three hundred archival color and black-and-white photographs, the companion volume to the PBS documentary chronicles the development of the American automobile, with contributions by past and present pioneers in the industry. TV tie-in.
