Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of American Roads Any path, any trail, any road, exists because there is a need for it. The little path leading from a farmhouse down to the spring was worn deep by the feet of thirsty people. Country roads leading from farms to modern highways are needed for hauling farm products into cities. The splendid highways which now connect American cities and towns have been built because of the growing need of people to trade with each other. The more need there is for a road, the better the road will be - and without the modern roads of today the United States could not be the great country it is. This is the story of American roads - why and how they were built, and where they led. It is also the story of the men who made the roads, and the women and children who journeyed with them. They were courageous people, although they never stopped to think about it. It took courage and patience and strength to cut a path through wilderness country.
