Chronicling more than fifty years of individual and industrial tinkering, Roger B. White shows how the technological innovations and cultural ideas of each era influenced motor-home design and popular use. Tracing the motor home's development from home made conversions to mass-produced recreation vehicles, Home on the Roadtakes a lively look at America's love affair with this mode of travel.
