Summary

"Traveling a distance for many means taking a bus, car, train, or maybe a bicycle. In other parts of the world, however, forms of transportation may include rickshaws, gondolas, hovercraft, or cable cars. This fast-paced volume invites readers to hop aboard on a journey to test out some of the most fascinating modes of travel around the globe. Lively, accessible text and vivid photographs emphasize this interesting aspect of world cultures." --, Amazon.com
