Reader Reviews
This is a wonderful book with beautiful photography that explains a lost colorful segment of Americana. The author has done a loving and thorough job of research. The only difficulty, and it doesn't detract much, is that the writing style assumes a bit of familiarity with these machines so if you're new at it, as I was, it takes a bit of time to understand some of the detail available, and the author goes into ALOT of detail about the various machines. So, it's an enjoyable read like a delicious super-rich dessert -- you'll enjoy it, but you have to read it slowly. On the other hand, you can just skim the beautiful photos whenever you want to be taken back to a bygone era.
