With a true tale for every day of the year, this book tells of the first self-propelled vehicles of the 1700s, the origins of Ford, FIAT and Jaguar, about the tragedies that have altered the daily commute, and about some of history’s most important cars, such as the Porsche 356, Chevrolet Corvette, Volkswagen Beetle, Ford Model T, and much more.
During the last four centuries certain key events have influenced the development of the auto industry and the way people get about. This book tells fascinating tales, bringing individual days to life with short stories, photographs and illustrations. From the first self-powered vehicles to modern advances in technology, many topics are covered surrounding the turbulent history of the automobile. The births and deaths of automotive innovators, the rise and fall of car companies lost to history, incredible days at the racetrack, relevant inventions, the introduction of some of the greatest cars ever built, and many more true events from around the world are described on their day in Automotive History.

Almost since birth Brian Corey has been a car fanatic. He purchased his first vehicle at age 13, a 1949 Plymouth, which he owns to this day. Brian, a small business content strategist, studied automotive technology in high school, and journalism and history in college, giving him the tools to research all aspects of the auto industry in order to tell its stories. He has been a member of Port Gardner Vintage Auto Club since he was a teenager and continues to enjoy a number of classic cars in his personal collection.
