The complete motorist, being an account of the evolution and construction of the modern motor-car; with notes on the selection, use, and maintenance of the same; and on the pleasures of travel upon the public roads
A 1905 general-reader guide to the motor-car by Filson Young, published in New York by McClure, Phillips and in London by Methuen, covering how cars are built, chosen, maintained, and driven on public roads. Line-drawn chassis plans and elevations sit beside halftone photographs of bare frames, wheels, and gearing, offering engineering diagrams, spoked-wheel silhouettes, and close views of flywheels and transmission parts.
