Charts the patterns created by reigning modes of transportation and examines how people came to accept the bland, branded boxes lining America's streets and freeways as architecture. Beginning with a portrait of ambulatory Native American societies and the introduction of horses by the Spaniards, Kaven discusses the built environment shaped by trains, cars, planes and rockets, and looks toward a future architecture defined by autonomous cars and air taxis
