My Enemy The Motor: A Tale In Eight Honks And One Crash is a novel written by Julian Street and published in 1908. The book is a satirical take on the rise of the automobile and its impact on society. The story revolves around the protagonist, Mr. John Carruthers, a wealthy businessman who is vehemently opposed to the automobile. He despises the noise, pollution, and danger that cars bring to the streets of New York City. However, his views are challenged when he falls in love with a young woman who is an avid motorist. As he tries to win her heart, he must confront his own prejudices and come to terms with the changing world around him. The novel is filled with humor, wit, and social commentary, and serves as a fascinating snapshot of the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
