Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes you on my journey of becoming a car dealer. It offers a bird's-eye view of the automobile industry. It evaluates the conditions under which I and many other Black car dealers operate in order to determine why so many of us failed. In 2005 there were 751 new car franchise-rooftops1 owned by African Americans. As of December 2017, that number declined drastically to 270, out of a total of 19,284 American new car franchise-rooftops. In 2005, black car dealers accumulated billions of dollars in wealth; unfortunately, they lost most of it when the recession ended in 2009. Yet African Americans continue to purchase new cars in record numbers. African Americans purchased 1,105,931 new cars in 2015, with gross revenue of $35,357,792,000, most of which went to white car dealers. With an annual growth rate of 9.4%, it's estimated that African Americans will purchase over 1.5 Million New Cars in 2020, with gross reveue surpassing $50 Billion!With African Americans owning only 1.4% of car dealerships nationwide, can we afford to give $50 Billion dollars of our hard-earned income every freaking year to folks who don't look like us? $50 Billion dollars circulating within the African American community can go a long way and will do wonders for African Americans! It will create jobs with fair incomes and will allow Blacks to purchase houses that appreciate in value instead of simply buying cars that depreciate. Ultimately, it will allow Blacks to build wealth. After all, it's our damn money! In September of 1992, at the age of 36, after a 10-year career as a Business Consultant for Ford Motor Company and a Ford Dealer Trainee, I joined the ranks of the Black car dealers in America and became the proud owner of a Lincoln Mercury franchise in St. Louis, Missouri. Five years later, like the majority of Black car dealers, I lost my franchise.Dealing chronicles the emotional highs and lows I experienced both before and after becoming a Black car dealer.

Download or read book Arsenal of Democracy written by Charles K. Hyde and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-04 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the role of the American automobile industry in producing vehicles, weapons, and other war products during World War II. Throughout World War II, Detroit's automobile manufacturers accounted for one-fifth of the dollar value of the nation's total war production, and this amazing output from "the arsenal of democracy" directly contributed to the allied victory. In fact, automobile makers achieved such production miracles that many of their methods were adopted by other defense industries, particularly the aircraft industry. In Arsenal of Democracy: The American Automobile Industry in World War II,award-winning historian Charles K. Hyde details the industry's transition to a wartime production powerhouse and some of its notable achievements along the way. Hyde examines several innovative cooperative relationships that developed between the executive branch of the federal government, U.S. military services, automobile industry leaders, auto industry suppliers, and the United Automobile Workers (UAW) union, which set up the industry to achieve production miracles. He goes on to examine the struggles and achievements of individual automakers during the war years in producing items like aircraft engines, aircraft components, and complete aircraft; tanks and other armored vehicles; jeeps, trucks, and amphibians; guns, shells, and bullets of all types; and a wide range of other weapons and war goods ranging from search lights to submarine nets and gyroscopes. Hyde also considers the important role played by previously underused workers-namely African Americans and women-in the war effort and their experiences on the line. Arsenal of Democracy includes an analysis of wartime production nationally, on the automotive industry level, by individual automakers, and at the single plant level. For this thorough history, Hyde has consulted previously overlooked records collected by the Automobile Manufacturers Association that are now housed in the National Automotive History Collection of the Detroit Public Library. Automotive historians, World War II scholars, and American history buffs will welcome the compelling look at wartime industry in Arsenal of Democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a first-rate social history of automobile workers in the pre-union era. I wish that I had written it. Stephen Meyer, University of Wisconsin-Parkside This book is a comprehensive history of automobile workers in the pre-union era. It covers changes in the kinds of workers who staffed the auto factories, developments in the labor process and in overall conditions of work, daily life outside the factories, informal responses of workers to routinized, monotonous, and highly structured work, and automobile worker unions before the creation of the United Automobile Workers. Although the 1920s were seen at the time as a period of peaceful and cooperative labor relations, author Joyce Peterson looks beneath the surface to discover the many ways in which auto workers expressed their displeasure with and attempted to fight against working conditions. The book also examines the Briggs strike of 1933, the first strike to significantly register the impact of the Great Depression upon the automobile industry and to mark the end of the pre-union era. The automobile industry was a model of twentieth century mass production techniques, of managerial organization, and of labor relations. Studying automobile workers in their historical and social setting explains a great deal about the nature of modern industryhow it affects the daily life and work of employees and how workers see themselves as individuals and members of a working class.

Download or read book Carriages Without Horses written by Richard P Scharchburg and published by SAE International. This book was released on 1993-08-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In September 1893, little could 23-year-old mechanic J. Frank Duryea dream of the changes that would be brought about by his creation -- a frail gasoline buggy that made its debut on the streets of Springfield, Massachusetts. Charles E. and J. Frank Duryea, two brothers from rural Illinois, were the founders of the American automobile industry. The Duryea Motor Wagon company was the first company organized in the United States for the manufacture of automobiles. The attention-getting, older brother Charles demanded - and to date has received - the principal credit for these pioneering accomplishments. A bitter family feud between the brothers, which was even carried on by their families after their deaths, further muddied the question about the individual brothers' contributions. However, in Carriages Without Horses: J. Frank Duryea and the Birth of the American Automobile Industry, historian and author Richard P. Scharchburg proves that the quiet, self-effacing younger brother J. Frank Duryea is unquestionably entitled to as much credit as Charles, if not considerably more. J. Frank did the actual work of construction on the cars, and was responsible for the practical designing and engineering of all components (aside from the steering mechanism) of the Duryea cars. More than an account of the struggle for precedence between brothers, however, Carriages Without Horses tells the story of America's first automobile company taking shape. Scharchburg covers the design and development of the first Duryea car, culminating with its successful operation on the streets of Springfield, Massachusetts on September 21, 1893. This book also covers: the landmark Chicago Times-Herald race of 1895, won by the Duryea car built and driven by J. Frank; the subsequent progress of the Duryea Motor Wagon Company; and, after the brothers went their separate ways, J. Frank's 1901 founding of the Stevens-Duryea Company.
