The Author's of this book have done a fantastic job of researching and documenting the early history of the American automobile. I have found this book to be an invaluable reference in researching the history of the automobile stock and bond certificates which I collect.

Even the most obscure and low-key manufacturer is covered. This book is well worth it's price and my only criticism would be...if all other readers used it as much as I do...please publish the next edition in hardcover!!

This is quite a remarkable resource about the history of American automobiles. It is one of author Beverly Rae Kimes's greatest legacies, a detailed, thoroughly researched, and complete work that will remain as the definitive story of the American automobile industry from its earliest days of the horseless carriage. It is almost unimaginable how Kimes and Clark pulled it off. It deserves 6 stars.

excellent reference for car buffs, all you could ever want to know. condition was as advertised-great shape

I beleive that anyone looking for an automobile that could have been made in the US, will find it in this book. Very well written and informative.
