From the beginning...
Since the start of mankind, humans have been constantly gathering knowledge in order to invent things that make life easier. In my opinion there are three inventions, among the millions, that have really made a difference.
- Cotton gin
- Air conditioning
- Automobiles
Personally, I don't know much about the cotton gin, but what I do know is cars.
The Automobile
Just like any major invention, there were thousands of inventors who made and patented their own form of the automobile, but the man credited with the invention of the American modern car is Henry Ford.
With the unveiling of Ford's Model T in 1927, the first affordable, mass-produced automobile, the face of the world was changed forever.
