Future of the Automobile Described as Transforming Transport
A late 19th century view argues the automobile will not supplant horses soon but will grow as a practical road carriage. Bicycles similarly shift to a broader user base, and roads improvements will boost auto touring. Cars are seen as transporting passengers and freight with growing urban demand and a shift toward home delivery.
