5.0 out of 5 stars
SIX stars!, August 7, 2006
This review is from: Plymouth-Desoto Story (Crestline auto books) (Hardcover)
I cannot rave enough about this work. This is THE definitive work on the Plymouth and DeSoto divisions of Chrysler Corporation. The historical accounts pre-date both marques up into their inception, following them through the demise of DeSoto in the fall of 1960 and into the very dark and troubled waters of 1978 (when this book was published).
Written by the late Don Butler (who was not only a talented author, but a very gifted artist as well), this textbook has it all. Extensive research over years must have been behind this project as countless productions numbers and other important info about models and sub-models are recorded.
Since I received this as a gift on Christmas 1982, I have referred back to it many, many times. An excellent work by which I have measured ALL other auto books by. Bravo, Mr. Butler!

The best book on the forgotten Chrysler make: De Soto, May 31, 2011
This review is from: Plymouth-Desoto Story (Crestline auto books) (Hardcover)
Another masterpiece, of the Crestline series ! This is the best book, on information, on De Soto !!! I've bought other books, about De Soto, and should have saved my money. The coverage, of Plymouth, is very good ; as well. Sometimes, the older books, are just better ! Mr. Butler hits another home run ! A+. I'm glad this is in, my private automobile book collection.

The bible for the De Soto, March 21, 2010
This review is from: Plymouth-Desoto Story (Crestline auto books) (Hardcover)
I found it hard to believe how expensive this book was. I purchasing it for a car enthusiast who owns a DeSoto. Once the book arrived he was so elated it amazed me. Once I flipped through and saw it from his perspective it is the holy grail for those who have DeSotos.
This book is the definitive bible for collectors and restorers.
According to the owner of the book - it doesn't get any better than this!
