Mini-review: Henry Ford: A life from beginning to end

A short straightforwardly written biography of the car tycoon - and what an interesting character he was.  Clearly a genius at business who managed to combine several innovations together with a strong sense of what was morally right for the working man - including introducing good wages to improve retention and motivation. Further, he was a pacifist even when it involved ridicule.  And yet, he was strongly anti-semitic and also employed union busting techniques.

The bio does have a few typos and grammar errors here and there.
