Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book narrates the rise and success of a new street transport system in San Francisco, beginning in 1873, that would revolutionize urban travel: the cable car. At the time, San Francisco had a transportation problem. Its steep hills made the use of horses and locomotives impractical, and the city was in dire need of a more efficient and reliable way to move people around. The cable car system, which used an endless underground cable to pull tramcars up and down the city's steep streets, proved to be the perfect solution. The book delves into the technical and engineering challenges involved in creating this new system, and describes the various cable car lines that were built throughout the city. It also discusses the social and economic impact of the cable cars, which quickly became a beloved part of San Francisco's identity and a symbol of its innovative spirit. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332324422_0
