Artifact Overview
As cars became affordable and more people began using them, owners needed to know how to operate them properly. This 1914 manual helped the layperson -- without a mechanical or technical automotive background -- understand and drive the Ford Model T. Ford touted the T's simplicity, but its manual still provided over 140 answers to possible questions owners might have.
