This title was first published in 2000: Coventry is synonymous with
both the creation and relative decline of the British motor car
industry. This volume utilises the extensive range of primary
sources on the subject to explore the relationship between the car
industry in its local context and the wider economic, social and
political environment. It analyses the emergence and early
dominance of Coventry's motor manufacturers, the rise of volume
production in the 1930s and the instabilities and renaissance of
the post-war era. Specific chapters deal with the industry's
response to the demands created by the two world wars. A number of
themes run throughout the book including the structure of the
industry and the relationship between its various sectors, resource
provision, management and labour relations, and the nature and
response to market demand. The book also provides fascinating
insights into the history of some of the most evocative marques in
the car industry, including Daimler, Jaguar, Alvis, Siddeley,
Standard and Rover.
