There have been surprisingly few titles on cable cars over the years: this is the first to appear in many years, documenting the history of the cable cars and citizens who fostered their development. From historic efforts to build the tracks and cars to battles over the cable car's development and continuing success, this documents both political and social developments surrounding San Francisco's historic public transit. -- Midwest Book Review
