FORD IN NEW ZEALAND - Putting the Car Before the Horse.

HARD COVER - LIMITED EDITION 230 PAGES - FULL COLOUR $49.95

This offer is for a copy SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.

Finally - after more than 100 years of their presence here - the story of FORD IN NEW ZEALAND is told in this limited-edition release, recounting the arrival in New Zealand of the Ford brand between 1904 and 1934.

It is an amazing tale.

Thoroughly researched, this book is packed with facts. It is much more than a car history - it is also a social history. We have forgotten that, in the mid-twenties, roughly half the cars in New Zealand were Fords - about 30,000 of them! Every second car was a Ford! The Ford changed our lives like no other - in the same way that, a century later, the digital age has changed our lives.

If you want photos of a Falcon or a Zephyr or a Cortina spinning it's wheels in front of a smoked-out crowd, please DO NOT buy this book. However, if you want to know the origins of your Falcon, or Zephyr or Cortina or V-8, and to understand how Ford became so prominent in this country, then you'd better be in quick because this book is selling fast (and I mean, really fast).

So much of the Ford history - and New Zealanders' desire for the motor car - is rationally explained in this limited-edition book.

The book was released on Monday 20 November. By 24 November I understand half the stocks were already sold. So, by Xmas, we expect it will be SOLD OUT.

A wonderful Christmas gift for the Ford follower or historian in your life.

Published by New Holland Publishing in November, 2017 this limited, first-edition book is available in every Paper Plus store in NZ, and in most other good bookshops.
