We have high hopes of someday owning a RV. Also being an antique auto owner, we thought it would be of interest to view this book. Perhaps we could find an "older" model, bring it up to modern standards and take it on the road. It was fun reading about the early campers and seeing how campers have evolved, and in many ways remain the same. I thought the newer models would be more interesting but it was the very old ones that caught our attention. How the more opulent people traveled with maids, etc. You call that camping? In hard times others turned their RV into their home and in some cases, it became a stationary home. A fun book to read and see - the pictures are great!
Excellent livre américain pour les collectionneurs du thème camping caravaning. Les chapitres vont de 10 ans en 10 ans de 1900 jusq'en 2000. Nous voyons rapidement l'évolution de ce type de loisirs au fil du siècle dernier. Des photos remarquables, des modèles inconnus pour ma part au look sensas. Dommage que toutes les photos soient en noir et blanc. Un très bon complément à d'autres livres sur les caravanes - camping cars, comme AIRSTREAM - History of the Land Yacht ou Trailer travel ou encore READY TO ROLL, des photos en doublons mais très bonne réalisation. Il me manque THE STORY OF THE MOTOR CARAVAN et RV & Campers toys, mais il me tarde de les trouver. Un complément à notre cher CARAVANES DE CHEZ NOUS francais.
