Clifton Lambreth has written an insiders view of Ford Motor Company and the mis-steps that have landed them where they are today. He explains a complex business model of a mega corporation using fictionalized characters. (I have to believe one of them is actually a character of himself.) It's an easy read that I would recommend for anyone interested in Ford, the auto industry or American business.

I had to read this book for a management class and was dreading it the whole time. When I finally made my self read it I'm so glad I did. It was a great learning we experience! I highly recommend it to any one who enjoys reading
