Henry Ford achievements and the impact on the automobile industry

There is almost no way to completely assess the impact the automobile had on the world: it changed the very look of our towns, cities, and countryside with roads, bridges, and freeways; it improved emergency services; it enabled people to see more of each other and more of their world; it made it easy to procure food and merchandise; it also effected the congestion of the cities and the quality of our air; and it became a leading cause of injury and death. Positively or negatively, the automobile had more influence on daily life in America than perhaps any other invention of the 20th century. And this influence was largely the work of an uneducated farm boy with a natural genius and a determination to do things his way, no matter what others said.
