The First Woman to Drive Across America
Alice Ramsey became the first woman to drive across the continental United States in an automobile. The Maxwell Briscoe company wanted to sell more cars to more people, and there was a whole type of person who weren't buying cars yet. An ad would later boast that the historic journey was made without a particle of car trouble. Years later, Alice Ramsey would write a book about her drive to San Francisco that would put the lie to that line.
