5 or So Transit Books You Should Read
Human Transit by Jarrett Walker
Winter break is coming up. That means it is time to read. It is also time to be-gift your favorite transportationists with books. A student asked what transportation books he should read. That of course depends. I have read and liked the following.
Human Transit - Jarrett Walker [review]
The Transit Metropolis - Robert Cervero
Down the Tube: the Battle for London's Underground - Christian Wolmar (really anything by Christian Wolmar, hopefully the next Mayor of London)
Mr. Beck's Underground Map - Ken Garland (really anything on London by Capital Transport)
Twin Cities by Trolley: The Streetcar Era in Minneapolis and St. Paul - John Diers
