My memory is hazy, but I think he really objected to the way Henry treated Edsel. He finally got fed up and left. I remember loving the book at the time. I got it from the library and never owned a copy myself.
If I can get a copy, I want to read this one too. Sorensen was the main manufacturing force behind Henry, the guy that put his ideas into mass production.
