This review is from: Studebaker 1946-1966: The Classic Postwar Years (Hardcover)
Anyone interested in the postwar history of the auto industry should have this book. One of three volumes by Langworth (the others are on Kaiser-Frazer and Hudson) which highlight the significant contributions made by the independent (i.e.non-big 3) manufacturers. Well focused and easy to read, with just enough detail to tell the Studebaker story well, it's an outstanding survey work. While some conclusions can be questioned (Langworth sees the Avanti project as largely a failure; his assessment of blame on the failure of Studebaker-Packard and American Motors to cooperate sucessfully is not shared by some other authors) overall his analysis is excellent. Some fine photos too.
