Some edge chipping primarily to the top and bottom of the outside spine with a small missing piece at the top. Dust Jacket is now covered by a new clear mylar cover. Landmark Books and World Landmark Books are accurate, in-depth stories for young people in the 9-15 year old range. These living histories were written by award-winning authors or by men and women who experienced the events first hand. Written during the 1950's and 1960's and illustrated either with two-color drawings or clear photographs, the books are informative, enjoyable, and well worth reading and collecting. Landmark Book #68. In The Early Days of Automobiles, Janeway presents a warm and rousting American pageant of people building a network of highways, closing frontiers, getting to know each other.
