Classic Cars chronicles 75 of the greatest cars from around the
world, from the birth of the mass-produced vehicle through the golden
postwar era.
There are few subjects that evoke such passion as classic cars, and this
richly illustrated volume takes a fresh and informative approach to the
topic. In handy pocket-sized form, it presents 75 iconic automobiles,
from Henry Ford's Model T in 1908, through the classic period of German
manufacturing, and climaxing with the postwar era, with its lavish
design and pink Cadillacs. Each example receives two beautiful spreads:
the first showcases stunning cutout photography of the vehicle from a
variety of angles, complete with detailed annotations; the second
explores the history of the car, aspects of its design, and
revolutionary features. Real enthusiasts will appreciate the
comprehensive specification boxes containing every fact and figure
imaginable, from engine size and tire measurements to top speed, weight,
transmission, and steering.
