What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Cars have come a long way in the century or so since they were invented. This superb collection of specially commissioned photographs shows how cars have changed and developed, from the dangers of the early pioneering models to the complicated speedsters of today. See a horseless carriage and boneshaker, the elegant classics of the 1930s, and the family cars of the 1950s. Every aspect of the car’s story is illustrated by a detailed look at a particular car, such as the Model T Ford, a vintage Rolls Royce, and a 1930s Holden. Discover the story of cars——-from horseless carriages to modern sport cars. The most trusted nonfiction series on the market, Eyewitness Books provide an in-depth, comprehensive look at their subjects with a unique integration of words and pictures.
