| Summary | "The Woman and the Car" by Dorothy Levitt is a practical handbook written in the early 20th century. This guide is aimed at women interested in motoring, whether they are novices seeking guidance or experienced drivers looking for additional insights. The book covers various aspects of motoring, including the selection and upkeep of cars, driving techniques, and the social etiquette associated with being a female motorist. The opening of the handbook introduces Levitt's motivation for writing: to empower women to embrace motoring as a delightful and achievable pastime. It explains that women possess the patience and skills necessary for driving, emphasizing that motoring is an activity accessible to all women, regardless of age or previous experience. Levitt aims to simplify the complexities of car ownership and driving for women by providing clear, practical instructions based on her years of experience with various vehicles.
