Synopsis
Auto Legends: Classics of Style and Design is a collection of over sixty of the most important - and beautiful - cars ever made. From the 'horseless carriages' of the early twentieth century, such as the 1908 Ford Model T, and the sleek lines of the BMW 328 and Jaguar E-Type, to the thoroughbred Ferrari Enzo Ferrari of 2002, this selection provides a unique overview of the key moments of car design." The cars are presented chronologically in a succession of photographs by Michel Zumbrunn, widely recognized as one of the best car photographers working today. The combination of general views, taken from a variety of angles, and numerous close-ups of exquisite detailing allows the reader to appreciate fully these masterpieces of the car designer's art. Each entry is accompanied by a commentary by Robert Cumberford, a car designer and renowned motoring journalist, who shares his knowledge with the reader in order to highlight the history and essential design features of each vehicle.
