International History in the Making
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
WOW, not only was Studebaker a carriage, wagon, small car and truck manufacturer, of which this book chronicles the early history. Studebaker was also a great symbol of peace and hope for a world divided by idealology and war. Studebaker trucks were part of the American Lend-Lease program and as such were one of the few things that gave those of the old Soviet Empire a real positive effect about Americans and America. Having traveled myself in areas of the old Soviet Union, I have found many people who found good feelings of America in the presence of these old trucks. Many were used after the war on communal farms and in over the road transporation, often in Siberia and other far reaches. Many people, having been feed the steady diet of American terror and failure, realized that America was not a really bad place because they made this truck. This truck became the common element by which I made many friends and endeared many Russian and Ukrainian people to me and to the American way of life. This book begins to tell the story and its sequel book takes the reading public throughout the history of Studebaker, a must look at!
