This revised edition, with 26 additional photographs and two new chapters, completes the portrait of Ford's life, givingdepth to a man previously known only for the Model T. Through vivid photographs and narration, Ford's boundless energy andvision are revealed.An enthusiastic and courageous entrepreneur, Henry Ford used profits from the Model T to launch projects in a multitude of areas, from education to rubber production. Ford R. Bryan presents an unknown Henry Ford, focusing on his experimental humanitarian and business enterprises including those that failed.
