The author details the legal and regulatory landscape during this era, focusing on the rise of automobile-based common carriers, such as jitneys, motor buses, and motor trucks, that emerged alongside established railroad and streetcar systems.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a record of a year-long experiment in which the author lived with a group of people who live according to the ethical precepts of ancient Stoic philosophers. The author provides an overview of this philosophy, which is based on the idea that the path to happiness is through the relentless pursuit of virtue and living in accordance with nature. The author discusses the concept of "living in accordance with nature," and how that principle is relevant to life in the present day. The book is full of thought-provoking reflections on themes like the role of community, the nature of desire, the fear of death, and the acceptance of fate, and its insights could prompt readers to question their own values and principles.
