While this book provides an interesting history of urban mass transit, Cudahy's writing style is distracting and overly tangential. Many chapters in the book are puncuated by random segues into non-related historical footnotes, which I found to be very distracting. Some of the points Cudahy makes, like why buses are cheaper than streetcars, were not backed up by any clear evidence outside of the footnotes.
