The British motor industry has created many of the world's landmark car designs. Its famous names - Jaguar, Bentley, AC, Rolls-Royce, Aston Martin - are inextricably linked with some of the most recognized and coveted cars ever made. Now in an unabridged compact edition, this beautifully presented book gathers together more than 50 of the most significant British cars designed between 1907 and the present. With an introduction describing the often tortuous story of British motoring and its great marques, a succinct description of each car's history, design and performance, and unparalleled images by one of the world's foremost car photographers, this book is an authoritative tribute to the nation that gave the world the sports car.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Great photography, but printed in China,
This review is from: British Auto Legends: Classics of Style and Design (Paperback)
Some of the best photo work I've seen. I bought the book just based on the cover. Good handy size and feel. Unfortunately, printed in China.
