<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif;color:#141823">To commemorate her grandfather’s 1914 invention of the semi-trailer, Ruth Ann Fruehauf wrote a book, “Singing Wheels’” honoring the successes and accomplishments of the Fruehauf family
legacy. The Fruehauf Trailer Company was the dominant trailer manufacture for nearly a century and became the 75t<span class="textexposedshow">h largest company in the world when it declared bankruptcy in 1997. It all started in a Detroit shop operated by
a hard working German immigrant, August Fruehauf. After inventing the concept of the semi-trailer, the company went onto invent the automatic fifth wheel hitch, the dump trailer, the tanker trailer, refrigerated trailers and the shipping container. The colorful
history is captured in a coffee table book with 90 pages of photographs from the family archives.
