Hardback. Lord Montagu and F. Wilson McCombhave created not just another book about early motorcars, but a unique study - and celebration - of the methods and manners of the people who drove them. yesterday's motorists.Behind the Wheel goes beyond the "minutiae of the machinery' to explore what the authors see as 'the curiously strong link between man and motorcar." The result is a fascinating account of the trials and trumphs of motorists in the first few decades of the motoring age: how they made the transition from horse-drawn carriages to cars; how they controlled the car and managed (or didn't manage) on as-yet inadequate roads; how they coped with doing their own maintenance and repairs; how they learned to drive and what they wore; and, perhaps most important of all, how they reacted as the car itself evolved from being an expensive but entertaining toy for the well-to-do into a reliable source of continual delight and new-found Ireedom for the ordinary family.Profusely illustrated and filledwith anecdotes drawn from contemporary motoring literature, Behind the Wheel both documents and recreates the magical ambience of the period, offering a special look at some of the fun a motorist had in those days and the things that have happened to confound and exasperate him since the very first time he ran into a gatepost or broke his wrist trying to swing his engine with a starting handle. 1977, First edition. A near fine copy only marked by very light tanning/spotting on the edges. The d/w is unclipped and very good with light edge rubbing and light sunfading on the spine.…
