Buda's wagon : a brief history of the car bomb / Mike Davis. - London : Verso, 2007 - x, 228 p.

Car bombs, or more accurately, vehicle bombs have been described as the poor man's airforce. This book details the at times bizarre path of their development from Mario Buda's horse and cart attack on Wall Street in 1920 to their ubiquity in Iraq, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Northern Ireland and elsewhere.
