Transportation! : cars, trains, ships, & planes as you've never seen them before

Benton, Adam, (illustrator.). Bull, Peter, 1960- (illustrator.). Chapman, Giles, (author.). Gifford, Clive, (author.). Harding, Jason (Digital artist), (illustrator.). Sparrow, Giles, 1970- (author.). Smithsonian Institution, (issuing body.).

Summary: "Knowledge Encyclopedia: Transportation! uses incredibly detailed 3D illustrations to show you everything you need to know about how vehicles work. Peer inside a car engine, feel the roar of a jet, watch a helicopter's rotor create lift, and explore below the decks of an ocean liner. Meet hundreds of vehicles that float, fly, or speed across the land, including the record breakers--the fastest, largest, longest, and strangest modes of transportation ever to zoom, sail, or soar. And check out current and future craft that use green energy to transport people and goods around the world."--
