"Auto Mechanics provides a superbly researched, engaging look into the profession that's near and dear to us all."
(John Lypen Motor Magazine)"Borg's own work in the repair shop infuses the study with insights that I am sure would escape anyone without the experience he has had... His questions are anything but academic."

(Steve Relyea Import Automotive Parts & Accessories)"This is an excellent work that has much to contribute to our understanding of the automobile, technology, and wider trends in American history."
(Amy Gangloff Michigan Historical Review)"In seven richly detailed chapters, theoretically sophisticated and attentive to nuances of race, class, and gender, Borg analyzes the changing background, training, and expertise of auto mechanics over the course of the twentieth century."
(Joseph J. Corn Technology and Culture)"A wonderfully insightful study of the emergence and evolution of a contingent occupation and the meaning that that position had on both the people who did the work and those who procured the workers' services."
(Lisa M. Fine Labor History)"Auto Mechanics is an important contribution to U.S. labor and economic history and to our understanding of the ways that the mass production of automobiles changed working life."
(Andrew E. Kersten Journal of American History)"Well-written and well-researched... will be read with interest by all scholars of modern America."
(David Blanke Register of the Kentucky Historical Society)"Auto Mechanics sheds new light on the history of the automobile that top-down and bottom-up studies alike have missed. Call it a 'history from the middle-out,' if you will."
