Resumen del Editor
Inspiring historical fiction based on the real life of Bertha Benz, whose husband built the first prototype automobile, which eventually evolved into the Mercedes-Benz marque.
"Unfortunately, only a girl again."
From a young age, Cäcilie Bertha Ringer is fascinated by her father's work as a master builder in Pforzheim, Germany. But those five words, which he wrote next to her name in the family Bible, haunt Bertha.
Years later, Bertha meets Carl Benz and falls in love—with him and his extraordinary dream of building a horseless carriage. Bertha has such faith in him that she invests her dowry in his plans, a dicey move since they alone believe in the machine. When Carl's partners threaten to withdraw their support, he's ready to cut ties. Bertha knows the decision would ruin everything. Ignoring the cynics, she takes matters into her own hands, secretly planning a scheme that will either hasten the family's passage to absolute derision or prove their genius. What Bertha doesn't know is that Carl is on the cusp of making a deal with their nemesis. She's not only risking her marriage and their life's work, but is also up against the patriarchy, Carl's own self-doubt, and the clock.
Like so many other women, Bertha lived largely in her husband's shadow, but her contributions are now celebrated in this inspiring story of perseverance, resilience, and love.

Historia
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Aleen Cust has big dreams. And no one―not her family, society, or the law―will stop her. Born in Ireland in 1868 to an aristocratic English family, Aleen knows she is destined to work with animals, even if her family is appalled by the idea of a woman pursuing a veterinary career. Going against their wishes but with the encouragement of the guardian assigned to her upon her father’s death, Aleen attends the New Veterinary College in Edinburgh, enrolling as A. I. Custance to spare her family the humiliation they fear.

Next came partial deafness, then dizziness and vertigo that rendered him unable to walk, work, sleep, or even communicate.

Amazing! Top notch!
What an interesting true story about a strong woman, a believer in an outlandish dream. Bertha Ringer Benz is everything we aspire to be: intelligent, warm, dedicated, loving - and a visionary on a mission.
Thank you Penny Haw for bringing this inspiring, real woman to our attention. Thank you Caroline Hewitt for delivering the story with such clarity and pathos. We are there every step and cobblestone of the way.

Fascinating
What a great bio fic story. A fascinating look at the invention and life-time pursuit of a combustible engine for a horseless carriage. Who knew that a woman was so involved. A whole family. And then the near fearless ride across the countryside at just the right time. With starts and stops all the way, Bertha Benz demonstrated a the kind of courage and fortitude that should be celebrated. I’m glad for this book and for the fact that it seems her part in all of this is finally being spotlighted.
