About this ebook
Did you know that the wheel was invented in prehistoric times, in about 3500 B.C.? Now we can travel between towns and cities in super-fast trains, in fast cars, and halfway around the world in a day in airplanes. From dugout canoes from 10,000 years ago right through to modern-day driverless cars, this book charts the amazing history of transportation.
