Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive survey of the impact that road construction and automobiles had on the development of rural America. In the early twentieth century, the author shows how roads were few and far between, and automobile ownership was a luxury. As roads were built and cars became more affordable, rural life was transformed. The author details how roads allowed farmers to get their goods to market more easily, students to attend school more conveniently, and families to socialize more frequently. The author also explores the impact of the automobile on the rise of suburbs and the decline of small towns. The book is a valuable contribution to our understanding of American history, and it is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of transportation or the development of rural America.
