Motor Truck Logging Methods
Frederick Malcolm Knapp
63 pages~1 hr 15 min read25 chapters$4.99
When the logging railroad met the motor truck, the forests changed. Knapp lays out the whole calculation: rolling stock, road costs, depreciation, insurance, and the laws governing heavy haulers. It is a working manual from the moment trucks began carrying timber out of the woods. For anyone curious how logs really left the mountainside.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
