Book excerpt: Here are the memoirs of a modern industrial enterprise--an intimate business history that is part of the pageant of America's history, giving us a richer understanding of the greatness and glory of our country. As the first fifty years of The Firestone Tire & Rubber Company coincided with the halfway mark of the twentieth century, they spanned the wonderful period of change from horse-and-buggy days to the automotive era.
