    This book just appeals to me on so many levels. Its a detailed study by the Works Progress Administration of traffic patterns in Detroit in the 1930s, with amazing illustrations. Would make the infographics people at USA today or The Economist or New York Magazine proud. I found it at the Prelinger LIbrary in San Francisco. If you're a combined data and design geek, from Detroit, how cool is this book?
