My Life and Work, is Henry Ford's autobiography and his philosophy in business.
Excerpt:
WHAT IS THE IDEA?
We have only started on our development of our country--we have not as yet, with all our talk of wonderful progress, done more than scratch the surface. The progress has been wonderful enough--but when we compare what we have done with what there is to do, then our past accomplishments are as nothing. When we consider that more power is used merely in ploughing the soil than is used in all the industrial establishments of the country put together, an inkling comes of how much opportunity there is ahead. And now, with so many countries of the world in ferment and with so much unrest every where, is an excellent time to suggest something of the things that may be done in the light of what has been done.
When one speaks of increasing power, machinery, and industry there comes up a picture of a cold, metallic sort of world in which great factories will drive away the trees, the flowers, the birds, and the green fields. And that then we shall have a world composed of metal machines and human machines. With all of that I do not agree. I think that unless we know more about machines and their use, unless we better understand the mechanical portion of life, we cannot have the time to enjoy the trees, and the birds, and the flowers, and the green fields.
I think that we have already done too much toward banishing the pleasant things from life by thinking that there is some opposition between living and providing the means of living. We waste so much time and energy that we have little left over in which to enjoy ourselves.
Excerpt:
To bring the matter to its true proportions, it must be remembered that to the view of the times the new constitution was but the latest attempt to tinker the federal scheme, and it was yet to be seen whether this endeavor would be any more successful than previous efforts had been. As for the title of President, it had already been borne by a number of congressional politicians and had been rather tarnished by the behavior of some of them. Washington was not at all eager to move in the matter before he had to, and he therefore remained on his farm until Congress met, formally declared the result of the election, and sent a committee to Mount Vernon to give him official notice. It was not until April 30, 1789, that he was formally installed as President.
The International Jew gives a rare insight into the thoughts and political yen of many of this era. If we fail to study history, even controversial elements of history, we are indeed doomed to repeat its mistakes. Ford, like thousands of other influential men and politicians, endorsed the Nazis in 1930s Germany. This fact is one that is seldom covered in history books.
Every Jewish person should read these books to understand the sort of thinking which creates this attitude among many Gentiles. Our opinion is that Henry Ford, as brilliant a man and entrepreneur that he was, fell into the human trap of assuming the absurd and blaming all Jews for the wrongs of a few. To his credit Mr. Ford did eventually understand he couldn't blame an entire race or entire religion for the atrocities committed by a minority of the Jewish population. The FACTS Ford relates within these books remain FACTS. It is the FACTS we should all study and be aware of.
TGS Publishing does not endorse many of the conclusions reached by Henry Ford in his books 'The International Jew.' His methodical research did preserve bits and pieces of history not often documented in other writings. It is this history we choose under freedom of press to preserve, irregardless of Mr. Ford's anti-semitic remarks and opinions.
As founder and owner of the Ford Motor Company, Henry Ford Sr. made a positive, lasting contribution to American industry and culture, providing mobility to millions with his inexpensive automobiles. ...
