4.0 out of 5 stars New revision of classic reference work, 8 April 2000
By Allen Koenigsberg (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is a revision of the original edition of 1959 - the focus here is from 1877-1929, and the later electrical period has been omitted. Many of the photos are new to this version, which contains chapters by Frank Andrews and Ray Wile.
