    About this ebook

     Intrepid motorists of the early twentieth century encountered rough roads, mechanical problems, and a less-than-excited populace as they drove their exciting new “horseless carriages.” The novel captures with humor the adventure and uncertainty that faced anyone who traveled by automobile while at the same time telling a love story.
