About this listen

 Women may not have invented the car, but a woman took the first road trip in one (Bertha Benz) and a woman was the first victim of one (Mary Ward). And when cars came in big time they changed life dramatically for women in particular. Visit the ⁠website⁠ (herhalfofhistory.com) for sources, transcripts, and pictures.
