<p>Beginning with early electric vehicle development in England, France, and the US, Wakefield provides an in-depth look at the "golden age of electric vehicles" (1895-1905), demonstrating the technological improvements and business risks of this era. He also explores the "dead era" of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, the subsequent re-birth of interest in electric vehicles in the early 1960s, and events which have impacted the development of electric cars since, most notably the Electric Vehicle Act of 1976.
