Description

Warren Avis landed at airports across the United States and waited . . . and waited . . . and waited. Sometimes he would have to walk for miles from the airport terminal before he would find a ride to pick him up. Airport ground transportation? Unthinkable. Rental car companies? Never heard of ’em. And if you wonder how Avis, the man, created Avis, the car-rental giant, you only need to look back to the early 1940s to see one frustrated man with a brilliant idea. Captain Warren Avis, a military pilot in World War II, knew something about air travel and he knew something about cars.
