  This is a celebration of the history of the automobile in America from 1907 to 2003 - the best and the worst, the successes and the failures, the classics and the bizarre, the automobiles that America has taken to her heart and that have defined American culture. The book charts the progress of the automobile in America from the beginning of car production, through the explosive automotive creativity of the 1950s and into the future of the industry in the 21st century. It highlights the work of the big three - Ford, Chrysler and General Motors - and the smaller companies who didn't survive the 1930s and 40s, like Crosley, Packard and Studebaker. Over 150 cars are examined in detail.
