From the birth of James Brewster in 1788 to the death of his grandson, William "Willie" Brewster in 1949, America produced some of the finest carriages in the world. Born of the conservative values on which America was founded, the legendary Brewsters put their name and stamp on an era of great progress. In a brief 161 years, this family of carriage makers went through good times and bad; through the craftsmen era to the development of factories; and through the American Dream of "rags to riches." This book unravels the confusion over the carriage companies that bore the Brewster name and provides a sense of corresponding historical context.
