In 1896, Henry Ford built a car in a backyard shed that didn't fit through the door. Twelve years later, he built the car that put the world on wheels.

Model by Model tells the story of every Ford, in order, starting at the very beginning: two failed companies, a race nobody expected him to win, a company down to its last $223.65, an alphabet of cars, a new company across the river in Canada, and finally the Model T.

Every fact is sourced, and where historians disagree, the book says so. Sources for each chapter are at modelbymodelhistory.com.

Six chapters:
1. The Quadricycle
2. Two Failed Companies
3. The First Model A
4. The Alphabet Cars
5. Ford of Canada
6. The Model T
