| |  | | | In Brief
"Based on a true incident, this is the story of a journey by a German housewife and her two sons, who stole off one night with one of the prototype motorcars Karl Benz (as in Mercedes Benz) had invented. This was 1888, and Benz had been trying in vain to attract investors; because of a local law restricting use of the invention, Benz couldn't drive it far enough to prove its usefulness. With no experience at driving or at making repairs, Mrs. Benz set off to prove the motorwagen's roadworthiness. . . . Grades three to five." (Bull Cent Child Books)
| | | | Annotation
Recounts the story of the first automobile journey, made by Berta Benz and her two teenage sons in 1888.
