This book gives information about 50 amazing vehicles, including boats, cars, planes, motorcycles, chariots, wagons, rockets, and bicycles. It's really amazing to see how history has changed over the centuries and especially in the last one hundred years just because of mankind's ability to travel.

I love the beautiful illustrations and attractive page layouts! The information is given in little bite-sized paragraphs, making it easy to read quickly. I was so interested in all the factoids and anecdotes from history! It was really inspiring to read about these inventors who took risks and tried new things and broke barriers to create a new form of travel for their era.

There is one place at the end though where the book talks about how we need more electric cars because they are supposedly better than fossil fuel. But they forget to mention that most electricity comes from burning coal, so it's not really that much better. It seems like they could have given a little more information about electric cars to cover all the facts, instead of making it seem like electric cars are the perfect solution to all the world's environmental problems. The issue isn't that simple, and they left out a lot of information.
