These visionary salespeople ventured into unknown territory, selling something regarded as a fad, at best. Some became wealthy and powerful, others failed. But the lure of the automobile never wavered. With more than 150 spectacular vintage images--many never before published--Driving Force brings to life the people who convinced Los Angeles the car was not a luxury. They made it a necessity. And it became and icon of the modern American city."--Back cover |
