Myth-Busting Motoring Milestones

Keith Ray
Innovations in automotive engineering are at the forefront of this illustrated miscellany, often exposing popular misconceptions (such as that Rudolf Diesel invented the diesel engine). As well as exploring the origins of the engineering behind modern cars, entries also cover the familiar paraphernalia of motoring life such as cat’s-eyes and multi-story car parks.
