Synopsis
Ford's Dagenham factory is one of the key centres of car-making in Britain. For 60 years it has been known for mass-producing a series of popular cars that have earned it a distinctive place in British motoring history. The factory also dominates the economic and working life of the Dagenham area. This illustrated story gives a fascinating behind-the-scenes insight into the techniques of automative design and engineering and tells the story of the fluctuating fortunes of the company and provides a revealing account of the relationship between Dagenham and the American headquarters of Ford at Dearborn. This book is a fascinating record of car production techniques and processes at Ford as they have evolved over the years, and it offers an intimate portrait of the people who have worked at Dagenham, and depended on it for their livelihood, for generations.
