Carriage and Wagon Makers' Machinery and Tools
Kenneth L. Cope
If you're interested in wagons and carriages, especially in wheelwrighting, and in the history of technological innovation, you'll enjoy this volume. Using machinery instead of hand tools began earlier in carriage and wagon building than in other 19th century trades, and lasted longer. Cope continues his series with an alphabetic listing of the inventors and builders of relevant machinery and tools. Includes lots of illustrations from old catalogs and trade journals, and a glossary of terms.
