Beschreibung
In 'The Rural Motor Express' by the United States Council of National Defense's Highways Transport Committee, the book explores the importance of developing efficient transportation systems in rural areas during a time of war. Written in a straightforward and informative style, the book discusses the challenges faced by rural communities in transporting goods and people, and proposes solutions for improving the transport infrastructure. The literary context of the book lies within the realm of early 20th-century transportation planning literature, showcasing the government's efforts to address logistical issues during wartime. This work serves as a valuable historical document highlighting the intersection of transportation, defense, and rural development. The author, the United States Council of National Defense's Highways Transport Committee, is a group of experts tasked with advising the government on transportation matters during World War I. Their collective knowledge and expertise in transportation planning provide credibility to the recommendations put forth in the book. The authors' firsthand experience in studying rural transport challenges adds depth and authority to their perspectives. I recommend 'The Rural Motor Express' to readers interested in the historical development of transportation systems, especially within a wartime context. This book offers valuable insights into the challenges and innovations surrounding rural transport planning during a crucial period in American history.
