Electric Interurban Railways in America
ISBN: 9780804740142 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. One of the most colorful yet neglected eras in American transportation history is re-created in this definitive history of the electric interurbans.

The Cable Car in America
ISBN: 9780804730525 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 484 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Enriched with almost 700 illustrations, this book has long been the definitive study of the American cable car, a widely touted form of urban transportation that operated in 29 cities across the United states.
