    Edsel Ford

    I've never liked Henry Ford as a person, but the contrast between Henry and Edsel was stark. All you need to do to see the difference between the two is to visit Henry's home and then visit Edsel and Eleanor Ford's home on Lake St. Clair. Edsel was a class act. He had an incredible eye for...
