Historians have documented nearly every detail of the America's automotive successes and excesses, but they have long overlooked the lowly economy car. As a teenaged boy, I began to peel away the layers of history and a fascinating story emerged. Over four decades, I assembled a truckload of facts, figures and stories about America's smallest cars. So I wove together nearly 1,500 pages of facts and photos into a three-volume book series. "ORPHAN BABIES, America's Forgotten Economy Cars" is written like an historical reference novel with dialogue extracted from actual vintage periodicals, sales brochures, and the personal memoirs of lesser-known automotive pioneers, hobbyists and mentors. Of course, I've owned many of the brands covered in the series. Learn more at www.orphanbabycars.com.Interact
