For sale is a new copy of the scarcely seen book, The American Steam Traction Engine, Volume 2.  This 250 page book picks up where Maurice Kelly's Volume 1 left off - covering the great variety of steam traction devices, from steam rollers, steam walking engines, early California steam traction engines (steam road tractors), steam buses, wagons, etc.  As with all Mr. Kelly's books, it is exhaustively researched and well illustrated.  If you want to explore the outer edges of early attempts at steam-powered pulling devices, this book makes for some interesting reading/study.  Obscure maybe, but for the student of early steam, well worth the search.

Boxed shipping, is $6 by Media Mail, or $11 by Priority mail.
