4.0 out of 5 stars Well researched, good source book.
The book contains detailed information on each 356 model. It is perfect for the owner, prospective owner, or fan. It is well-researched and a great assist for the 356 fan.

2.0 out of 5 stars So and so Porsche 356 book.
Lots of detail description thru-out the years of the 356. Good for telling the differences between the years. No history and introduction. No color pictures. Could not find any information about the specs of the various engines supplied thru the years. There are some guessing in the book which is always a no-no for publishing a book like this.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very detailed guide to authenticity, June 28, 1999
By A Customer
I like this book very much. It is a great guide when your looking for authenticity, it's very detailed. It covers all 356 models (Speedster, Roadster, Carrera,...) from 356 to 356C. It has a fair price, so: defenitely worth buying!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tons of treasured photos! Excellent!, April 10, 2000
I've received my order yesterday and can't wait to start read it!

This is my first Terry's book! Eventhough the book is not so thick(Which I expected it should be),but this book is a excellent phtograph based history of KdF-Wagen-The beetle's 'Dad', undoubtly. Not so many words, just captions,but lots of treasured photos and pictures I've never seen before! (Such as KdF-Wagen and Kubels using alternative fuel(Charcoal,natural-gas),V2,V3 prototypes.....)

The only one thing left to be desired is print quality(I think the publisher should use better paper to print this excellent book for next edition),Based of the great content, I still rank it with five stars!

I can't wait to order the other books of Terry!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Factual Read!, June 21, 2008
This book takes you back to the early days and development of how the Volksie came to be. The pictures were very nicely done.

Brett's books are the best and should be in your library if you have or well get a 356
