In a series of lengthy essays, Berger presents an in-depth study of various aspects of the automobile and the automobile industry, including history, cultural and societal impact, and relationships with government. The essays are bolstered by extensive bibliographic references, a chronology, a survey of research collections, and author and subject indexes. Part of Greenwood's American Popular Culture series.

Product Review
Useful for researchers who need to identify major writings in this subject or who need an overview of key topic areas, the book is recommended for libraries with collections in automobile history or popular culture.Choice
explores the literature concerning the impact of the car on American social, economic, and political history.Business Horizons
Michael Berger has compiled an extraordinary work, mostly annotated bibliography, but with a short chronology and introduction to research collections. He annotates works by more than fourteen hundred authors, judiciously including literature by car buffs in areas where there is no well-developed professional literature. Selection and commentary are excellent. Berger's index is outstanding, an absolute necessity in a work like this.Technology and Culture
This work will be a valuable starting point for anyone interested in studying the impact of the automobile on American life, or for any library building an automobile research collection.American Reference Books Annual
Highly recommended for academic library collections.Lawrence Looks at Books
