Driving It Home books, "Car advertising, perhaps more than the advertising for any other product, tells the story of the economic, political and social history of the 20th century. The motor car is a cultural icon that symbolises the economic and technological successes and failures of the era, and reflects society's changing hopes, fears and aspirations. Driving it Home traces the story from horseless carriage to sport utility vehicle, from run-about for the wealthy to a global dependency which threatens the future of our planet. The book contains over 120 original advertisements which illustrate the development of the techniques and methods of car advertising and the fascinating history of a major symbol of 20th-century life."--Page [4] de la couv.
