Summary
In 1914, the first cars rolled off Henry Ford's assembly line, and life changed forever. A century later—and 225 years after the first auto patent granted in the US—it's time for a complete view of the vehicle that created modern life. Jonathan Glancey, a leading authority on popular culture and design, provides a snapshot history of the automobile-not just the makes and models, but its role in politics, family life, war, advertising, architecture, film, and television.
