Download or read book Haynes-Apperson and America's First Practical Automobile written by W. C. Madden and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2003 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Elwood Haynes and the Apperson brothers are not as well known as Henry Ford, Ransom Olds and other famous automobile manufacturers, their contributions to the automotive industry are just as significant. They were responsible for one of the first functioning automobiles, if not the first, in the United States. After building their automobile in 1894, the three men formed the Haynes-Apperson Automobile Company in Kokomo, Indiana, one of the first car manufacturing companies in the country. Three years after incorporation, a dispute over money caused the partnership to split up and Edgar and Elmer Apperson formed their own company. Both companies lasted until the mid-1920s. This book is a history of these automotive pioneers and their companies: the Haynes-Apperson Automobile Company, the Haynes Automobile Company, and the Apperson Brothers Automobile Company. It is richly illustrated with photographs of the factories, automobiles, personalities and advertisements.

Download or read book Beyond the Pioneer written by Dave Griffey and published by Trafford. This book was released on 2006 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996, there was a celebration in Detroit to recognize the 100th anniversary of the American automobile. As a tribute to the cars of old, a replica of the 1894 Haynes Pioneer was driven out on the stage. The original car is now on permanent display in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D. C. That part of the ceremony brought to light the automobile heritage of Kokomo, Indiana, where the first car was built in 1893-94. The car was a success from the start and each of the following years, local mechanics continued to turn out new improved models. There were no auto parts stores anywhere, so every single item needed, had to be custom built, and if it didn't work, the part would be redesigned and built again and again. By 1898, the Kokomo automobile company was running strong and several other component manufacturers were starting up. By 1902, Kokomo had two automobile factories. In 1912, the Haynes Automobile Company began using the slogan, "America's First Car", the only automobile company to do so. The Haynes automobiles were fine cars and the company had a good nationwide dealer network. Everyone knew the car was promoted as the first car and other than an occasional grumble from one other old pioneer, Elwood Haynes was recognized as the inventor. In 1922, the Indiana Historical Commission and the Hoosier State Automobile Association recognized Mr. Haynes as the inventor of the "First Mechanically Successful Car." Like nearly all of the early automobile companies, the Kokomo plants closed in the mid-1920s, but the city was in fairly good shape, blessed with successful automobile component manufacturers and empty buildings which could be offered to new potential industry from out of town. After the factory closed and Mr. Haynes death, there began a gradual deterioration of the first car story and now, eighty years later, some historians even fail to mention the name of Elwood Haynes. It is my hope that this book will remind people just how important Kokomo, Indiana was to the history of the American Automobile Industry.

Book excerpt: Classic Speedsters: The Cars, The Times, and The Characters Who Drove Them chronicles the most significant vehicles ever to have traveled American roads and racetracks. Speedsters were the pizzazz cars of their era. Speedsters were owned by entertainers, captains of industry, the wealthy, and in some cases, the everyday guy or gal. They were often expensive, but always fast and sexy. Speedsters were America's first sports cars.Each chapter frames the birth and evolution of a company that produced a speedster model in its lineup and includes a biography of a famous owner of the period. This book traces the journey of the speedster concept across several time periods and among twelve automotive companies. It answers three fundamental questions:· Why were these cars so important and influential?· Why did so many prominent people own them?· What message do they have for modern design?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a rediscovered collection of autobiographical accounts written by hundreds of Kansas pioneer women in the early twentieth century, Joanna Stratton has created a collection hailed by Newsweek as “uncommonly interesting” and “a remarkable distillation of primary sources.” Never before has there been such a detailed record of women’s courage, such a living portrait of the women who civilized the American frontier. Here are their stories: wilderness mothers, schoolmarms, Indian squaws, immigrants, homesteaders, and circuit riders. Their personal recollections of prairie fires, locust plagues, cowboy shootouts, Indian raids, and blizzards on the plains vividly reveal the drama, danger and excitement of the pioneer experience. These were women of relentless determination, whose tenacity helped them to conquer loneliness and privation. Their work was the work of survival, it demanded as much from them as from their men—and at last that partnership has been recognized. “These voices are haunting” (The New York Times Book Review), and they reveal the special heroism and industriousness of pioneer women as never before.

Book excerpt: Tracing the vivid saga of Native American and pioneer men, women, and children, this guide covers the colonial beginnings of the westward expansion to the last of the homesteaders in the late 20th century. Dozens of firsthand accounts from journals and autobiographies of the era form a rich and detailed story that shows how life in the backwoods and on the prairie mirrors modern life in many ways--children attended school and had daily chores, parents worked hard to provide for their families, and communities gathered for church and social events. More than 20 activities are included in this engaging guide to life in the west, including learning to churn butter, making dip candles, tracking animals, playing Blind Man's Bluff, and creating a homestead diorama.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Senseless school shootings, cure-defying epidemics, threats of environmental disaster: these are the kinds of headlines that riddle the news every day. The challenges we face range from the horrific to the heartbreaking. We wonder, when will it stop? Frustration and fear won’t bring about beneficial change. Passionate men and women are needed to step into the gap and serve as change agents even though many assume that there are few areas left in which to innovate. While many advances have been made, there is still a need for everyday people to create, innovate, and impact their spheres of influence to advance the common good. Motivated by curiosity, conviction, and a conquering spirit, they can move to fill unoccupied spaces to nurture, persuade, understand, and solve some of society’s lingering dilemmas. Those who do the initial significant work in these areas are the ones who bring about such needed change. They are pioneers. The Pioneer’s Way establishes a working definition of the pioneer, explores pioneering versus leadership, and offers essential characteristics of the pioneer. These are illustrated by colorful examples of pioneers both past and present—motivating readers with inspirational, frontiering stories, while equipping them with the journey’s essentials for moving forward to make needed, significant change. Readers will journey down a systematic path that will help them navigate unfamiliar territory so they too can respond to the pioneer’s call and answer it through effective, beneficial action in both their lives and the lives they touch.
