Eighth Biennial Automotive History Conference
Tupelo, Mississippi
March 25-27, 2010
The Society of Automotive Historians in association with the
National Association of Automobile Museums will hold its Eighth Biennial
Automotive History Conference in Tupelo, Mississippi, USA, from March 25
to 27, 2010. Entitled The Automobile in a Time of Crisis Lessons of
History, the conference will be a symposium exploring the response of
the automotive industry and of public policy when confronted by changing
economic conditions, political imperatives and cultural preferences. Of
interest to a wide range of people, from academic researchers to lay
historians to museum professionals, it will be hosted by the Tupelo
Automobile Museum.
Attendance is open to SAH members, friends and others. Previous
conferences have drawn a wide group of those with an interest in
automotive history and provide an excellent opportunity to interact
with colleagues and make new contacts in our field of study. The
conference brochure which sets out the three-day program in detail is downloadable here as a PDF file. All are encouraged to attend.
