- Summary:
- In Young Henry Ford, Sidney Olson dispels some of the myths attached to this automobile legend, going beyond the Henry Ford of mass production and the five-dollar day, and offers a more intimate understanding of Henry Ford and the time he lived in. Through hundreds of restored photographs, including some of Ford's own taken with his first camera, Young Henry Ford revisits an America now gone - of long days on the farm, travel by horse and buggy, and one-room schoolhouses. Documentation and illustrations in this book came from the thousands of items, both monumental and inconsequential, saved by Henry Ford and presently in the collection of Henry Ford Museum & Greenfield Village.
