5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for Jeep Lovers, a must have for a Jeep fanatic
When are they going to update these books to include the historical irrival of the TJ??? Give me some royalties and I'll write the section myself!

On a serious note though... David Fetherston (the author) seems like a bystander (not a Jeep Fanatic),but I could be wrong.

The book is fairly detailed, short, sweet, with lotsa Jeep pictures. Big pictures, and big font...

3.0 out of 5 stars RE: 1988 jeep Wrangler Sahara
This book may or may not have been well researched. On page 81 a caption for a photograph reads "In 1990 Jeep introduced the Wrangler 'Saraha'." I know this to be untrue because I have the original factory window sticker for my 1988 Jeep Wrangler Sahara. Other than that this book was a good read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for Jeep Lovers, a must have for a Jeep fanatic, May 30, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Jeep: Warhorse, Workhouse & Boulevard Cruiser (Paperback)
When are they going to update these books to include the historical irrival of the TJ??? Give me some royalties and I'll write the section myself!

On a serious note though... David Fetherston (the author) seems like a bystander (not a Jeep Fanatic),but I could be wrong.

The book is fairly detailed, short, sweet, with lotsa Jeep pictures. Big pictures, and big font type are traits this book carried to the extreme. I guess it was done that way for the older wartime guys/gals that still love Jeeps. (can you blame them?)

One of the quotes I saw in the book that struck me as truer than true is..... 'The Sun Never Sets on the Mighty Jeep'

The Chapters in the book are as follows... 1. The Sun Never Sets on the Mighty Jeep 2. Post-World War II 3. The 50's 4. The 60's 5. The 70's 6. The 90's (They don't have any TJ's in there yet) 7. The Future - Plus Some R&R

This book does not include any technical or repair /maintenance information however, so don't buy it expecting help in that area. This book is more for history, background, the people involved in the Jeeps initial conception, etc.

This book also covers the history of the Willys and the Scrambler better than most I've seen.

Did you know that in the war, they'd tip the Jeep on it's side if needed for repair? Well, now you do!

Oh, by the way, I bet the author of this book caught the Jeep Bug before he was done with it... I wonder how many Jeeps he owns now.?.?

Jeep ON!
