The work, therefore, is an excellent addition to an institutional or personal library, which probably contains few, if any, studies of machines powered by internal combustion engines and how these contraptions have influenced twentieth-century culture, society, and economics.' Albion, Vol. 31, No. 1 Author InformationMargaret Walsh is a Professor of American Economic and Social History in the School of American and Canadian Studies of the University of Nottingham.
