This historical novel envisions the invention of America's first
gasoline automobile. One of ten children and eventually the son of
a successful post-Civil War manufacturer, John William Lambert was
well situated to explore his love of engines and his dream of a
self-propelled car. Based on facts from a hand-written family tree
and other family materials, combined with research about the man
and the era, this story tells of America's Industrial Revolution
through the life of one its most prodigious inventors. The author
is the great-granddaughter of the inventor of America's first
gasoline automobile. As a psychotherapist, Carol wanted to know
John Lambert as a person and so traveled to Ohio, Michigan and
Indiana to visit libraries, interview those who knew or studied him
and go through boxes of John's business and family material. She
contacted car museums, automotive history libraries and countless
websites.
