Hell on Wheels: The Promise and Peril of America's Car Culture, 1900-1940 - CultureAmerica
David Blanke
The emergence of the automobile on the American scene represented many things - excitement, freedom, progress - but also danger, death, and injury. This work tells how the automobile pulled society in two contradictory emotional directions: exhilaration in personal mobility versus anxiety over public safely.
