The Car

In 1914, the first cars rolled off Henry Ford's assembly line, and life changed forever. A century later, 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.

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.
