Opis

American Cars An Illustrated Guide is a celebration of everything that is great about the all American automobile. From the turn of the twentieth century through to the present day, the book traces the development of the automobile, reflecting the social change it brought and reflected. From the horseless carriages of early times and the aero designs of the 1940's (inspired by WWII fighter planes), right through to the retro look of today's models. Technical details, modifications made from their automobile predecessors, their performance and handling on the road, and the public's reception of the car are described so vividly that you'll think you're in the driver's seat. Every car is, of course, accompanied with beautiful images. This book is an excellent gift for car lovers.
