"Ward is one of our nation's top transportation historians. He chronicles Packard's curious rapid fall in a beautiful book with more plot twists and turns and odd characters than a Sam Spade murder mystery. Because Ward is curious about the interplay between institution and personalities, the book comes alive. . . . Resplendent with generous helpings of Packard photos." Chattanooga Free Press "Packard elegance is a fading mystery, and this handsome volume serves as a respectful but realistic obituary." Journal of American HistoryWard, James A. is the author of 'Fall of the Packard Motor Car Company' with ISBN 9780804724579 and ISBN 0804724571.
