Teardrops and Tiny Trailers

Buckle up as Douglas Keister takes you for a decidedly retro ride in the world of diminutive travel trailers in Teardrops and Tiny Trailers.

    Another Douglas Keister book full of high quality photography and great reading. For the teardrop purists there may be some trailers covered that you don’t like but for everyone else, you’ll appreciate the coverage of the smaller canned-ham trailers.

    A wonderful book with illustrations and descriptions of modern and historical teardrops. Shows a wide variety of teardrops and tiny trailers. Lots of detailed pictures.

    An interesting read for trailer aficionados, novices, RV and even tent camping enthusiasts. Excellent photography, engaging and concise history. I keep a copy in my teardrop to lend to campers who ask for a tour and more information. This book’s “tiny trailers” are non-teardrops like Shasta, Serro Scotty and other “canned hams.” Good value, great book.

    I like the book. I do wish it had more information on building teardrops in it. It does however have some beautiful pictures in it that have given me some ideas when I do start to build mine. Overall it is a good book.

    The photographs in this book are incredible! And besides the beautiful photos the text is well written. It also includes sections on Canned Hams and the Silver Sisters.
