Henry Ford was perfectly tuned to his times. He made sturdy, practical cars that everyone could afford and drive. His moving assembly line slashed the cost of production. His network of franchised dealers nurtured car ownership and promoted gas stations and better roads. But when his time passed, he couldn't adapt to the world he had helped make. Here, in this short-form book by bestselling author and consultant Will Peters, is the story of this deeply flawed genius, with lessons for entrepreneurs and leaders alike.
