Mirror of America, Henry Ford - US History 1915-1925 Part 1/4

A film compiled from the archives of the Ford Film collection and divided into four parts. The first and second parts mostly portray life pre-World War I. A number of different subjects are addressed throughout all four parts from everyday household life, city life, travel, industry, and recreation to name a few. There are also quite a few model T automobiles roaming about and some good shots of Henry Ford himself.

Parts three is mostly concerned with events during World War I including Ford's contributions to the war effort.

Part four shows Model T production at the Highland Park plant. Includes some very nice footage of Ford trucks at work. Tractors are examined as well. Includes some interesting "safety" footage near the end.

This is very interesting, thank you for posting it. I always look for this on the History Channel when the HS was about "History" and not the garbage reality shows it has now.
