by Donald F. Wood

RVs & Campers 1900-2000: An Illustrated History Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Today, hundreds of thousands of people live in RVs permanently, and even more use campers and RVs for recreation. This is the first and only book to give an entertaining look at the history and evolution of this popular lifestyle and hobby. Hundreds of nostalgic photographs show a wide variety of campers and RVs throughout the entire 20th century. See early auto tent-camping, converted buses, fold-out trailers, homemade campers, foreign exploration expeditions and even traveling chapels with living quarters for pastors! Anyone who has ever enjoyed RVs and campers will be thrilled by this retrospective look at these vehicles and their predecessors throughout the 20th Century. Chapters broken down by decade with brief 2-3 page introductory material for each chapter.

Book News Annotation:

A wonderful variety of camper solutions are gathered in this well- researched volume. Chapters for each decade give a narrative history, and the many photographs include full captions. Many one-of-a-kind, homemade rigs as well as special models by auto and truck manufacturers are included.
