The Age of the Automobile: A Social History of 20th Century Britain - Paperback
by H. J. Perkin (Author)
This lively work offers a wide-ranging account of the social history of the motorised age, and of the machine which has reshaped the character and development of the modern world. It places the development of the car (and of its more sinister cousins the tank and the war plane) in their context and impact on society in peace and war from the Edwardian period onwards. This is a social history of modern Britain at its most focused, on issues that really matter.
Harold Perkin was Professor of Social History, University of Lancaster, being the first such Professor appointed in Britain.
