Car The Definitive Visual History of the Automobile DK 9780756671679 Books Reviews
- Perfect for my car - enthused 4 year old! My husband thought American cars in it are limited (if that matters to you) but there are some. It is excellent with big pictures and an index when he wants to find the Lincoln Zephyr. Highly recommend.
- I bought this is a Christmas present for a relative who fixes up and sells cars. It's printed on nice, heavy, glossy paper. The book is divided into sections starting with early cars (through 1920), and then with a section for each decade thereafter. AT the beginning of each section is a double page with small pictures of representative cars from that decade, each labelled, and then closer looks at cars from that decade. It's well done. There are descriptions of the workings of an internal combustion engine, but they are not too technical. This book is very nice for anyone who likes cars, or, really, for someone who enjoys looking at the progression of something which is really central to our lives today.
- This was actually a gift for my three year old daughter and my husband for Christmas! My daughter and husband are both obsessed with cars. This has been one of the best car books I he looked through- it is a complete history! Both have spent hours looking and reading about all the cars. I like how the book is separated by decade!
- Bought this for Christmas for both my dad and father-in-law, both who are interested in cars in general and classic cars. The quality is much better than I had hoped for. The book is very heavy, the type people used to leave out on their coffee table. Very nice quality pages and photography inside. Both were very pleased with their gift.
- My son loves cars so I got this book for him. He loves it. All the photos through the years are cool for him to check out and the mini write-ups about each car's history are fun for dad. If you're a car lover don't miss this one.
- Beautiful book, and everything you need to know about the history of cars with stunning photos. Perfect gift for a car enthusiast.
- Gift purchase . This was purchased two years ago and he loved it.
- One of my daughter's favorite books. She loves classic cars, this book has so many of them and so much info for her. Great "coffee table" book too!
