Motorbooks' Speed Read series celebrates every aspect of the original
pony car--the Ford Mustang--from the key people like Lee Iacocca and
Carroll Shelby to the racing success to the cars themselves.
Get a full look at every iconic Mustang model, from the first car to
bear the name that became the fastest selling car of all time, to the
astounding 526-horsepower supercar Mustang produces today.
In sections divided by topic, you'll explore the design and launch of
the first Mustang at the 1964 World's Fair; a history of every
generation of Mustang; the various body styles, options, and
accessories; a review of the performance models; a profile of
Carroll Shelby and the Mustangs he designed; special editions,
like the Sprint, ASC/McLaren, and police pursuit vehicles; and, of
course, the Mustang's racing legacy.
Each section ends with a glossary of related terms, and
informational sidebars provide fun facts, historical tidbits, and
mini-bios of key people in Mustang history. Sleek illustrations
showcase Mustangs in their many forms.
