GOLDEN AGE OF MOTORING

GOLDEN AGE OF MOTORING

Edited 1982

The book presents a fascinating account of contemporary attitudes during this time of change. Comments on topics as diverse as the longing for speed, machines which had minds of their own, what the well-dressed lady motorist should wear, the advent of the motor race, last ditch attempts to ban automobiles for good; all are faithfully recorded just as they struck writers and illustrators of the era.
