Friddell, Claudia, (author.). Holmes, Jeremy, (illustrator.).

Summary:

It's time to hit the road! After years of inventing things that other people needed, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford realize there is somthing they need--a vacation! So, the famous inventors pack up Ford's Model T and invite their good friends Harvey Firestone and John Burroughs to come along. "The Four Vagabonds" take to America's back roads to enjoy the country's natural wonders, fireside chats, frolicking fun--and even a few new inventions. What they don't enjoy are the reporters and admirers who disturb their peace and quiet. The trips are indeed such big news that millions of Americans can't resist hitting the road for adventures all their own. Ready? -- Provided by publisher.
