A quick history of the automotive and political world during the tenure of the Yugo

The Yugo: The Rise and Fall of the Worst Car in History by Jason Vuic

This book is much more than a history of one failed automobile. It follows the history of the small compact car in America. From Pony’s to Tercel’s, the story covers all the cars imports from overseas during the 70s and 80s, many of which were brought to the country by Malcolm Bricklin of Canada’s Bricklin fame. Even segues into geopolitical concerns surrounding auto importing. A great, fun read!
