In this "captivating" (New Yorker) and "engaging" (Wall Street Journal) book, historian Dan Albert explores how car culture has suffused America's DNA. The plain, old-fashioned, human-driven car built our economy, won our wars, and shaped our sense of freedom as it gave us mobility. Has the road now come to an end? Fewer young people are learning to drive. They prefer ride hailing to car buying. Tech companies and carmakers promise their self-driving cars will cut carbon emissions, eliminate congestion, and save lives. Albert welcomes those changes. But what happens to us, he asks, when only the robots drive?
