"History is More or Less Bunk"
As a historian, Henry Ford was a great automobile entrepreneur. He told a reporter that what happened in the past had no influence on the present. That idea would be a hard sell to anyone sitting in a traffic jam. He later changed his mind: it turned out some history wasn't bunk. He opened a museum to show that the history should include the stuff of everyday life.
The automobile and recent history intersect at The Henry Ford exhibit of the limousine President Kennedy rode on his last day in Dallas.
