The New Necessity (Classic Reprint): The Culmination of a Century of Progress in Transportation: The Culmination of a Century of Progress in Transportation (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The New Necessity: The Culmination of a Century of Progress in Transportation
The ensuing chapters are not intended to serve as a record of the past and current events connected with the automobile. It is obviously impossible to do justice to such a subject in the space allotted. So the reader will find that many things have been omitted - the ramifications of modern automobile production processes, the inside story of iron and steel, the fascinating story dealing with the advertising and sales aspects, and the biographies of those coura geons and enterprising men who laid the foun dations.
