Author - Griffith Borgeson
ISBN - 0-7680 - 0023 - 8
Second edition
Approximately 360 pages.
A misleading book description could lead to disappointment for some. 'Covering the period of time from the 1910's through the 1930's is just not true. The content effectively ends at the end of the 1929 season, with just occasional reference to the 1930's.
That said, this has to be 'the' book for the enthusiast of the period, with full details on Duesenberg, Chevrolet, Miller, Goosen and Offenhauser, both the people and the cars they were involved with. Much technical detail, with the only let down being the picture quality.
An absolute bargain from 'Love Books' at £18 including postage.
9/10
