In this book Steven Parissien examines the impact, development and significance of the automobile over its turbulent and colourful 130-year history. He tells the story of the auto, and of its creators, from its earliest appearance in the 1880s - as little more than a powered quadricycle - via the early pioneer carmakers, the advances of the interwar era, the 'Golden Age' of the 1950s and the iconic years of the 1960s to the decades of doubt and uncertainty following the oil crisis of 1973, which culminated in the global mergers of the 1990s and the bailouts of the early twenty-first century. This is not just a story of horsepower and performance. The Life of the Automobile is a tale of people: of intuitive carmakers such as Benz, Agnelli, Royce and Citroën; of exceptionally gifted designers such as Issigonis, Lefebvre, Michelotti and Bangle; and of visionary industrialists such as Ford, Tata and Porsche. Above all, The Life of the Automobile demonstrates how the epic story of the car mirrors the history of the modern era, from the brave hopes and soaring ambitions of the early twentieth century to the cynicism and ecological concerns of a century later.

2006 Scholar's Bookshelf reprint edition. First published in 1917, just as the automobile was taking "its sudden leap into popular use," this was the first publication to trace its mechanical and commercial evolution from the first horseless vehicle on to steam and electric vehicles and their replacement by the gasoline car. The work includes interesting, important, and unique chapters on how the standardized automobile brought the United states to supremacy in the industry, the industry as an investment, and the benefits conferred by the automobile, including "increases social amenities," "emancipates woman from drudgery of domesticity," "uproots bigotry and removes prejudice," and other good things. Also includes a report on the industry in 1917, and prices of contemporary vehicles.
