Car Country: An Environmental History

Scott Carrico's narration is nothing short of excellent; his deep, resonant voice perfectly complements Wells’ insightful text. The pacing is just right—neither too rushed nor too slow—which helps maintain a balance between dense historical information and engaging storytelling. One minor critique: at times, the sheer amount of data can feel overwhelming, making it hard to digest all the details on the first listen. However, this book rewards multiple listens, each time revealing new layers of understanding about America’s automotive history. Highly recommended for audiobook enthusiasts and those curious about the environmental impacts of our car culture.
