This centennial book is a captivating visual history of the man and the machine that shaped the world in which we live. The compelling story of the Ford Motor Company in each ear - from the turn of the nineteenth century on into the twenty first - is one of vision, inventions, personalities, legendary vehicles, setbacks and success.
More than five hundred images from private collections and the Ford archives (many never seen before), along with scores of sidebars, captions and timelines, make this eminently engaging book impossible to put down, and easy to pick up again and again.
From the invention of the assembly line to the V8 engine, from the affordable everyman's car to a network to the creation of national highways, from the labour wars through the two world wars and into the global economy - it's all here in the most compelling book ever compiled on Henry Ford and the Ford legacy.
