Cord: Innovation in Silence tells the dramatic, fact-driven story of one of the most audacious and influential names in American automotive history. Born in the heartland of Indiana, Cord challenged conventions and expectations at every turn, dazzling the world with front-wheel drive, streamlined Art Deco styling, and technical breakthroughs that left Detroit scrambling to catch up. The 810 and 812 models stunned the public and set new standards for both engineering and elegance, even as economic headwinds and production woes cut the marque's dream short. Yet Cord's legacy only deepened after its demise. This book chronicles how Cord's bold advances in design and technology echoed across decades-shaping the very way cars are built, restored, and imagined today. From the rise and fall of Errett Lobban Cord and the company's intertwined fate with Auburn and Duesenberg, to the obsessive world of collectors, replicas, and modern tributes, this is the story of how a short-lived brand left a permanent mark on the road and in the imagination. Rich in historical detail and told in seamless narrative, Cord: Innovation in Silence is essential reading for anyone passionate about the automobile's past, present, and future.
