The concept was not to die, however, as the French retained an interest in cyclecars beyond this period and were producing small cars such a as the Mochet throughout the Second World War.

The History of the Future of Motoring
Until Henry's Model T dropped the price of motoring in a "full-sized" car, small cars evolved from motorcycles as a cheap alternative to the very expensive hand-built cars of Cadillac, Packard, Maxwell, etc. They were hugely popular, but all but disappeared with Fords successful assembly line product. Only to make a comeback after WW2 as micro-cars like the BMW Isetta and the 3-wheel Messerschmitt, and even in the middle of massive bulk and lavish chrome American motoring (the Crossley). With more and more small alternative cars of today considered the norm, it's nice to look back upon where it al started. This book does the trick nicely. Well done.
