Transport

Meer over het boek

From the time when moving faster, higher and over greater distances was just an idea, to the reality of the motor car, the hovercraft and the supersonic-jet plane, this book charts the results of human endeavour on land, on the air, and on water. With more than 300 entries, this timeline shows when the wheel first appeared, how people travelled on land while sailing ships explored uncharted seas, and illustrates the technology that lets people soar the skies.
