When Missouri Took the Trolley

This brand-new 224-page 8½ x 11 soft-cover book is the first ever to explore the state s trolley history. It tells how trolleys came to Missouri, why people rode them, how the quality of life improved because of them and how the auto soon deposed the trolleys. Thumbnail histories of every Missouri town that had a trolley system, or planned one, are included. The book is packed with newly-researched material plus almost 400 photos, maps and drawings.
