Means of Transport That Almost Changed the World, Hardback Book

Means of Transport That Almost Changed the World Hardback

Illustrated by Martin Sodomka

Part of the Means of Transport series

Hardback

Description

Realistic illustrations accompany the stories behind various more or less peculiar vehicles that were invented but in the end, they did not make the cut. We all travel sometimes—by car, by public transport, or by plane.

But there are some means of transport that we will never be able to use.

Let’s open this book and learn how come we don’t travel in flying cars, why trains don’t ride on a single rail, or why there are no life-size remote control cars. You’re about to be flooded with infamous ideas, prototypes, and crazy attempts at coming up with something new over the course of the last century.

The means of transport presented in this book may have not led to a technological revolution but did help us progress.

After all, people learn from their mistakes.
