 What you never knew about Toad's Wild RIde
If you've read Brian Ladd's Ghosts of Berlin, you know he is a historian of the highest caliber and a splendid writer. In Autophobia, Ladd doesn't disappoint. This original and slightly contrarian account of our century-long love-hate relationship with the automobile covers a tremendous amount of historical ground in an economical, entertaining read. Anchored by anecdotes ranging from the hilarious to the heartbreaking (including a priceless account of road-hog Toad and his fancy auto machine), Ladd offers insight into the current turn against the auto and into how modern life has become increasingly dependent and designed around cars, whether we drive them or not. An excellent book for our difficult times.
