?This excellent and much needed factual book describes how roads are constructed, focusing on the people who plan and construct the road and the equipment used. Simple illustrations in bright basic colors are visually appealing. The final pages consist of a brief history of roads from Roman times to the present day. Bright, colorful, and fascinating." -SLJ.

I used to get this book all the time from the library as a kid, and now that I saw it for sale from a non profit organization that supports libraries, I decided to finally give back for all that the library used to do for me. It was a very reasonable price and I was more than happy to support the cause. Thank you very much for your good service.
