Was reading all about the fascinating history of the Ford Edsel the other night, in "New Yorker" columnist John Brooks' "Business Adventures" (see further down my feed for the review), and one of the most surprising things I learned through it is that the Edsel station wagon is the HOTTEST FREAKING CAR I'VE EVER SEEN

Read my ★★★★★ review of famed "New Yorker" financial reporter John Brooks' classic "Business Adventures," although with the confession that I only read one chapter of this funny yet dense book, his thorough and hilarious look at one of the most infamous business failures of all time, the meteoric rise and lightning-fast fall of the Ford Edsel. goodreads.com/review/show/5161
