Farm Wagons & Carts
by: Arnold, James
Although many of the traditional waggons and carts used throughout Britian

are preserved, there is comparatively little literature on the subject.
With his expert knowledge of the topic and draughtsman's skill Arnold has
gone a long way to correcting that situation. His book covers the construction,
design and various components forming these by-gone vehicles, harness used
by horses and oxen to haul the waggons is explained before the study moves
on to describe in detailed text and drawings the surprising large variety
of types used and the many regional variations. Each one is sketched with
clarity and detail, most on a half-page, a few full-page and for some small
vehicles, two per page. 144 pgs.
