In 1915, Earl Echlin opened a small auto repair shop in San Francisco. Soon after, his brother Jack joined the operation and the two expanded their business to include car sales. One of the company's most significant events took place in 1928, when the National Automotive Parts Association (NAPA) named Echlin its exclusive supplier of oil-pump and igniter gears. The partnership between Echlin and NAPA remains valuable to both organizations today. From these beginnings, Echlin, Inc. has become one of the leading automotive parts suppliers in the world. The Legend of Echlin takes the reader on a drive through the history of the automobile, as the company grew through acquisition and innovation. Individually boxed.

The second edition of Serving the Silent Service: The Legend of Electric Boat, by noted industrial historian Jeffrey L. Rodengen, takes an updated, comprehensive look at the early years, evolution, and contemporary contributions of Electric Boat, a division of General Dynamics Corporation. Chronicling the swiftly paced development of the submarine technologies that helped the United States dominate the seas, the book offers revealing glimpses into the post-World War II travails at Electric Boat, when dwindling demand forced the company to diversify into a patchwork of products that included automatic pin-setters for bowling alleys. The book also captures the high drama of the Nuclear Age of submarines when Electric Boat and the enigmatic father of the Nuclear Navy, Admiral Hyman G. Rickover, were key players.
