The 55 chapters of Friends, Families & Forays are bursting with
details about the people and the pursuits that colored the life of
Henry Ford. Here the reader will meet prominent and diverse figures
such as Thomas Edison, John Borroughs, George Washington Carver,
Helen Keller, and Mahatma Gandhi - all of whose lives intersected
that of Henry Ford at some interesting point in his life. Also
brought to life in these pages are the branches of Ford's family
tree, from his Irish ancestors to the descendants who carry his
legacy today. Although it was the automobile that made him an
industrial icon, Henry Ford could boast of exploits in many other
arenas as well: railroads, speedboats, robots, flour mills, rubber
plantations, and humanitarian efforts around the world and in his
own backyard. Ford's hard work and passionate interests brought him
great wealth, and this book provides a peek at the luxuries he and
his wife, Clara, enjoyed, from a yacht and a private rail car, to
gracious residences in Michigan, Florida, and Georgia.
