Magic motorways
Norman Bel Geddes (Author)
"Magic Motorways, after a brief review of the history of old and new roads and auto-motive traffic in America, presents a detailed plan for an entirely new type of national motorways system. At first, some of its fea-tures may strike the reader as a fantastic dream, but Mr. Geddes proves their practic-ability. Grandma wrapped her linen duster around her neck and fearfully went out for a spin at eight dizzy miles an hour. But your grandchildren will snap across the entire con-tinent in 24 hours on a new kind of highway and in a new kind of car that is controlled by the push of a button! This book is illustrated with numerous original drawings and over 150 photographs. It will prove of vital interest to everyone who drives or rides on the crowded city streets or highways of America"--Front book jacket flap
