"NEW" 2515-2 Oversize: Images of Heavy Western Trucking, Volume 2, by Mark R. Wayman
Description
Oversize: Images of Heavy Western Trucking, Volume 2, by Mark R. Wayman
160 pages, softbound Price: $34.95, plus shipping and handling
Don’t judge this book by its cover! While the title is nearly the same as the first volume, and the cover hints that it is more of the same in terms of big-time on- and off-road trucking in the western states, this book explores several other topics as well. While more king-sized truck tractors and trailers are certainly covered, the range of other subjects is quite a surprise. Extensive coverage is given to the Hoover Dam bypass, with numerous photos of the cranes on the spectacular job as well as to construction of the bridge; support vehicles for oversized hauls; the specialized trucks and heavy equipment used in high-tension power line construction, with illustrations of how the towers and lines are erected; lowboy trailers and the loads they carry; and scale models of representative trucks and trailers from the first two volumes. The quality of the writing and captions is at least as good as in the first volume. This book is available from the HCEA.
