¿Sabía que a Henry Ford se le ocurrió la idea de la cadena de producción después de visitar un matadero? ¿Que antes de dedicarse al negocio de los neumáticos, la principal actividad de Michelin era la fabricación de pelotas de goma para los niños y zapatas de freno para los carros? ¿Qué el origen del Volkswagen Escarabajo es una iniciativa de Adolf Hitler para dotar de un coche asequible a cualquier familia alemana? Esto no estaba en mi libro de historia del automovilismo reúne mil y una anécdotas y curiosidades surgidas a lo largo de la historia de la automoción, muchas de ellas extrañas para el gran público e incluso para muchos aficionados al automóvil. Un libro ameno y desenfadado, que no busca establecer ningún tratado sobre la historia del automovilismo sino acercarnos un poco más al coche, ese objeto tan cotidiano que está tan presente en el día a día de nuestras vidas.
Did you know that Henry Ford came up with the idea for the production line after visiting a slaughterhouse? That before dedicating itself to the tire business, Michelin's main activity was the manufacture of rubber balls for children, and brake shoes for cars? That the origin of the Volkswagen Beetle was an initiative of Adolf Hitler to provide an affordable car to any German family? “This wasn't in my Motoring History Book” brings together a thousand and one anecdotes and curiosities that have arisen throughout the history of the automotive industry, many of them strange to the general public and even to many car enthusiasts. An enjoyable and relaxed book, which does not seek to establish any treatise on the history of motoring but rather to get a little closer to the car, that everyday object that is so present in the day to day of our lives.
