Description

Model T to Tesla: American Automotive Visionaries tracks the trajectory of one of America's biggest and most influential industries. Starting with Henry Ford and his production line and moving through the World Wars, the emergence of the Big Three, the financial crisis and government bailouts, and the power of the United Automotive Workers Union, Model T to Tesla also delves into the role the the automotive industry has had in shaping cities (from Detroit to the urban sprawl of the suburbs), the advent of alternative energy vehicles from Prius to Tesla, and the future of self-driving cars.
