Here is a nice copy of the hard-to-find biography of industrial and educational leader Charles Stewart Mott and his dedication to the city of Flint, Michigan.

After becoming one of the first suppliers of parts to the fledgling local auto industry, he went on to become a top executive at General Motors, as well as Mayor of Flint, and founder of the famed Mott Foundation.

This is also the story of the beginnings of General Motors and the men behind it - William Durant, Charles Nash, Walter P. Chrysler, Harry Bassett, CF Kettering, William Knudsen, Alfred P. Sloan and Harlow H Curtice.

 Fascinating details of a more-than 50 year partnership between a man and his community. Includes black and white photos.

GOOD/ VERY GOOD: This book has been gently read and well preserved over the years. The Dustjacket has light wear, including a few small rips or tears of edges. The spine is strong,and the book is complete with no loose or missing pages. The pages have light age yellowing around edges, but no writing or marks.

Great historical document of the Golden age of Flint and of Automobiles. (See Photo)
