This book offers a concise account of the creation of the DeLorean
sports car, and a brief history on how, despite its short life, the car
has come to be regarded as one of the most iconic vehicles of all time.
Following its vaunted creation, dramatic ending, and starring role in
the blockbuster Back to the Future trilogy, the car broke into the
wider public consciousness. This book explains how its entrepreneurial
creator, John Zachary DeLorean, was able to guide this almost impossible
project to come to fruition, while at the same time being the cause of
its almost inevitable failure. Included are recollections from some of
the people who engineered and built the car, and rare images taken
during the design and building of the car.
