Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. As new condition textured semi-glossy black oversized boards with gold front cover and spine lettering contained in a fine condition photographic dust jacket. Includes Foreword by Paul Newman; Index; and Photo Credits. Profusely illustrated with more than five hundred full-color and archival images. Also includes a new condition tipped-in thick stock color poster of Ford vehicles entitled: Wheels of Fortune. "No technological achievement has altered our world more than the introduction of the automobile into every element of our society, and no single company has been more influential in that achievement than Ford Motor Company. For the past one hundred years, we have used automobiles for our livelihood, for travel and recreation, for delivery and transport - thanks, in large part, to the vision of Henry Ford and the three successive generations of Ford leaders that have furthered his legacy. This hundredth anniversary book is a fascinating, highly visual look into the history of an American icon - a company with a household name that has been a part of the fabric of our nation's history. Ford's story is one of inventions, personalities, legendary vehicles, setbacks, and successes, all intertwined with the most challenging and innovative century in American history. The Ford Century represents the visual history of the man, the machine, and the company that changed the world. From the automotive assembly line to the V-8 engine, from the affordable everyman's car to the creation of a network of national highways, from the Arsenal of Democracy in World War II to today's global economy - it's all here in the most compelling and comprehensive book on Henry Ford and the Ford legacy. With more than five hundred full-color and archival images, an unflinching, thoroughly researched text, and many special features, this book spans a complete century of goings-on at this archetypal corporation. The Ford Century covers all of the well-known subjects - the Model T, Edsel Ford, the famed Rouge Complex - plus exiting unreleased vehicles, compelling interviews, and surprising insights that are possible only with the unparalleled access granted to the producers of this book. Featuring a lively, personality-centered text and stunning images, The Ford Century is a compelling read for car buffs, industry watchers, and connoisseurs of illustrated history alike." - from the inside front and rear jacket flaps.

Ike wrote that asked ?for help in dealing with this crisis, your company at once furnished?the same team - Mr. Leo C. Beebe and Mr. Charles A. Pink - who did so much to make a success of our work?for the Hungarian refugees four years ago.?In the wake of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, a Cuban exodus began as the new government allied itself with the Soviet Union and began to introduce communism. Tens of thousands of Cubans left Cuba starting in late 1959 and picking up in 1960, and the United States became the country of first asylum as the Cuban refugees sought and found political refuge here. For the first time, the United States Government found it necessary to develop a program to help refugees from another nation in this hemisphere.In the forefront of this effort was President Dwight D. Eisenhower, who was in the waning days of his administration. In November 1960, Eisenhower directed Tracy S. Voorhees, a former Undersecretary of the Army, to act as the President's Personal Representative for Cuban Refugees, to look into the Cuban refugee situation. To do this, and deal with the broader challenges the refugees presented, Voorhees reached out for assistance to Henry Ford II of the Ford Motor Company, who had been of great help on a similar occasion in the past. In 1956, Ford lent one of his senior executives, Leo Beebe, to the U.S. government to supervise the resettlement in the U.S. of refugees fleeing Hungary after the failure of the revolution there. Beebe became executive vice chairman of Eisenhower?s Committee for Hungarian Refugees. In addition to his committee work, during 1956-1957, while working out of Camp Kilmer in northern New Jersey, Beebe and his aide Charles A. Pink, a Ford staff member, oversaw the relocation and resettlement of 35,000 Hungarian refugees in the United States, eventually finding them permanent residences in this country.In 1960 Ford came through again, and provided the services of the experienced Beebe and Pink for the Cuban refugee effort. The Cuban Refugee Emergency Center was established in Miami, and became the focal point of refugee registration, assistance, relief and resettlement, as well as coordination of government and independent agencies? programs. Federal funding provided for the center?s operations, record keeping, publications, coordination of agencies and research on different aspects of the refugee situation, as well as for programs. The latter included financial assistance, educational loans, health care, adult education and re-training, resettlement and care of unaccompanied children.To understand the scope of the effort, in the first two years after the Cuban Revolution, over 50,000 Cubans fled and established new homes in the United States.Typed letter signed, on White House letterhead, Washington, January 16, 1961, to Henry Ford II, thanking him for again lending a much-needed hand in this critical venture. This letter was written a mere four days before Ike left office and was succeeded by John F. Kennedy. ?Tracy Voorhees, my representative for the Cuban refugee problem, has told me that in response to his request to the Ford Motor Company for help in dealing with this crisis, your company at once furnished to him the same team - Mr. Leo C. Beebe and Mr. Charles A. Pink - who did so much to make a success of our work at Camp Kilmer for the Hungarian refugees four years ago.?With their unique experience gained at Kilmer, these men have been largely responsible for setting up our Cuban Refugee Emergency Center in Miami, and making its work a success. May I express to you and to the Ford Motor Company mysincere appreciation of your again answering our call for help??This letter remained in the Ford family until recently, and it has never before been offered for sale.
