About the book >.>.> According to the historical records, the first long-distance automobile trip, that is, the grand touring, was made by Madam Bertha Benz, wife of German engineer and inventor Karl Benz, and her two children. The second long-distance driving trip was made by Armand Peugeot, who founded the Peugeot Motor Company. Peugeot traveled the Paris-Brest-Paris route. If a traveler were riding on an express train from Brest to Paris, he would see on the left side of the track, approximately 20 minutes to the Montpar- nasse train station in Paris, the famous Palace of Versailles. The Palace of Versailles was converted by King Louis XIV from a royal hunting lodge to the premier palace of the Western world. The palace and its auxiliary build- ings took 21 years to complete, from 1667 to 1688. The 425-meter-long main building was large enough to entertain 10,000 guests and was noted for its lavish furniture and innovative architecture
