Recommended"--ARBA; "recommended"--The Automobile; "don't miss a word toward the front of Automobile Manufacturers of Cleveland and Ohio. This is where you'll read about Ohio and how important it was to the early automotive industry...each paragraph has a number of important facts worth remembering...McFarland has printed the book on quality paper. Not only that, but the type is large enough to read without a magnifying glass. Both are welcome...an important research tool."--Horseless Carriage Gazette.
