About the Book

Two Thousand Miles on an Automobile Being a Desultory Narrative Of A Trip Through New England, New York, Canada, And The West By ""Chauffeur"" by Arthur Jerome Eddy is a humorous and insightful travel narrative from the early 20th century, recounting an adventurous road trip through New England, New York, Canada, and the American West. The book details the challenges and excitement of early automobile travel. Eddy is accompanied by his companion, the Professor, as they navigate the uncharted terrain of early motoring, reflecting on the technical difficulties and unpredictable nature of early cars. The narrative is a blend of adventure, humor, and social commentary as Eddy describes their encounters with diverse individuals along the way, from farm workers to curious townspeople. He offers witty observations on human nature, local culture, and the changing landscape of late 19th-century America. As the journey unfolds, the book provides a glimpse into the early days of automobile travel, exploring both the practicalities of the road and the rich cultural dynamics of the time. Two Thousand Miles on an Automobile is an engaging reflection on the spirit of adventure and the transformative power of the automobile.

About the Author :
Arthur Jerome Eddy (1859-1920) was an American lawyer, writer, and art collector, renowned for his contributions to the promotion of modern art in the U.S. Born in Flint, Michigan, he was the son of the city's mayor, Jerome Eddy, who owned the Genesee Democrat newspaper. Arthur later took over the management of the paper, showcasing his early involvement in journalism. Eddy was a versatile writer, producing works across a range of subjects, including travel, economics, and fiction. His notable works include Two Thousand Miles on an Automobile (a travelogue), Tales of a Small Town (short stories), and Ganton & Co. (a novel). However, his greatest legacy lies in his art criticism and collection. As a prominent member of the first generation of American modern art collectors, he championed avant-garde movements such as Cubism and Post-Impressionism. His book Cubists and Post-Impressionism was the first to introduce American audiences to these revolutionary art styles, with a particular focus on artists like Wassily Kandinsky. In addition to his literary and artistic work, Eddy also contributed to various magazines and played an influential role in the American arts scene.
