[Michlib-l] Library presentation

[Alan Naldrett]

Hi!

I’m a retired librarian/author and have been fieldinginquiries about my latest book, Michigan’s C. Harold Wills-The Genius Behind the Model T and the WillsSainte Claire Automobile, hence the posting. I’ve put together a presentation on the book. The presentation tellsthe Early Days of the Ford Motor Co. through the eyes of Ford’s “right-hand man”C. Harold Wills.

More about C. Harold Wills:

-Created the Ford logo

-Designed all of Ford’s early models, including Models Athrough T

-Developed the steel used in most autos today

-Pioneered the planetary transmission

-Pioneered back-up lights in autos, as well as otheraccessories

-Quit his million-dollar a year job at Ford to start his ownauto company

-Created a “Model Town” for his workers

This is a presentation geared to library and historicalsociety groups. I have successfully presented at many local venues and would behappy to provide references. I invite anyone reading this that has seen one ofmy programs, Lost Car Companies of Detroit, Lost Towns of Michigan, or theToledo War to mention how it went.

I usually get $50 to $100 expense moneybut am happy to give the program free to anyone without a program budget. I am also with the Anchor Bay Author Guild, a new writer's group. We are putting together a list of programs done by local authors and will send it to anyone who is interested in recieving it.

Thanks to everyone that has hosted mein the past!
