In this 1922 book Henry Ford gives a clear image of the Industrial United States in the first quarter of last century.

A required reading for those interested in business. The timeless advice it contains, reflects the full experience and wisdom of one of the foremost business moguls of all times.My philosophy of industry.MACHINERY, THE NEW MESSIAH WHAT of the American home? Is it in danger? Is it going to pieces? I do not think so. "Calamity howlers" who draw their conclusions from reports of divorce and criminal courts declare that the American home is in danger, that there is no family life today, that the younger generation is slipping. But my observation is that, on the whole, America is a pretty clean and wholesome place to live. Its people are sensible; our real civilization is sound enough. Men of Lindbergh's stamp have set a new standard, or rather have revealed to the world the real American standard. We have far less cause than we think to criticize our young people. Our young folks are all right, but they are living in a fast-moving century and are traveling faster than in our day, or rather are being carried faster. They are being prepared to meet the problems of their future. Let us judge them by their future and not by our own past.
