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.
