JOHN DUNCAN

Any Colour - So Long As It's Black: Designing The Model T Ford 1906-1908 by John Duncan (2008) provides a concise and fresh look at the design 100 years later. It is not an engineering treatise or an owner's manual; the aim is to get inside the mind of Henry Ford and to explain the design features that accounted for the car's success and to do so in a way that will appeal to anyone who would like to know why it has generated so much enthusiasm. The story is as much about people as it is about nuts and bolts. The character of the engineer and his design are interwoven to a surprising degree, and the singular personality of Mr Ford is shown to be reflected in his car.
