Description
"The Woman and the Car: A Chatty Little Handbook for all Women Who Motor or Who Want to Motor" by Dorothy Levitt is a handbook published in 1909. Written for women who aspired to drive but felt too nervous or intimidated by technical details, this pioneering guide covers everything from choosing the right car and changing speeds to proper motoring attire and self-defense. Levitt offers practical advice on starting engines, driving etiquette, and navigating highways—combining technical instruction with encouragement for women entering the male-dominated world of early motoring.
