Clara

the long version

"In telling the story of Clara Ford, author Ford Bryan also charts the course of the growing automobile industry and the life of the enigmatic man at its helm. But the book's heart is Clara herself - daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother; cook, gardener, and dancer; modest philanthropist and quiet role model.". "Clara is newly revealed in accounts and documents gleaned from personal papers, oral histories, and archival material never made public until now. These include receipts and recipes, diaries and genealogies, and more than 175 photographs."--BOOK JACKET.
