Victor Wouk: the Father of the Hybrid Car (Voices for Green Choices) Sean Callery 1st edition

In 1974, Victor Wouk created his first hybrid car, which ran on both gasoline and electricity, which meant that it would do less damage to the environment than any other car on the planet. Sadly it would take 27 years before such a car was available for purchase by the public. The concept of a functional, economical hybrid was not very well accepted in the auto industry and its proponents had to struggle for years for it to finally come into being. 6 chapters, photographs, chronology, glossary, further information section, index, and author profile.
