Mobile Mansions takes you on a captivating exploration of homes on wheels-everything from early diminutive camp cars to modern-day leviathans complete with saunas, balconies and gourmet kitchens. From the eclectic to the exquisite, the luxurious to the rare, this color-packed guide showcases the diversity of some of the most lovingly restored RVs on the road today. In this reference for pop culture connoisseurs as well as RV-loving enthusiasts, author Douglas Keister documents an amazing range of vehicles, including small camp cars from the 1920s, house cars from the 1930s, campers from the 1950s, and finally modern-day motorhomes that first appeared in the 1960s. Well-known brands like Winnebago, GMC, and Travco are featured as well as one-of-a-kind vehicles like the Lamsteed Kampcar, built by Anheuser Busch, the Zeppelin House Car, and Buckminster Fuller's Dymaxion car. Also included in this ultimate guide to RV nostalgia are descriptions, as well as a sampling of photos, of the RVs of cultural icons: Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Mae West, Howard Hughes, John Madden, the Partridge Family, Ken Kesey, The Who, and Barbie. Each had a home on wheels-be it an old converted school bus, massive RV cruiser, or elegant house car. Entertaining and informative, Keister offers a fun-to-read, informative history of the recreational vehicle illustrated with luscious full-color images, rare vintage photographs, and a sampling of period advertisements. Published 2006. 160 oversized pages.
