We learn how the “horseless carriage” became the modern motorcar – how it was improved and perfected in speed, cruising range, design, performance, reliability, safety, comfort, and economy. We hear the world-famous names of the inventors and manufactueres whose ingenuity and perseverance created the motor vehicle.’
