Over 400 photographs capture the excitement and elegance of automotive history and include many famous American models. The illustrations and words combine to re-create the adventures of designing and driving the legendary cars that evolved into today's indispensable, stylish, and efficient automobile. The book begins by describing how automobiles evolved from little more than "cookie tins" propelled by sputtering internal combustion engines to smoother-riding, rounded forms. It then concentrates on the most important models produced in terms of social, aesthetic, and technological advances, covering developments in aerodynamics, speed, and horsepower, setbacks like the gasoline crisis of the 1970s, and the emergence of the modern car company. The book concludes with a peek into the future to see what types of vehicles we'll soon be driving. From dream cars to road cars, this book brings together pictures and descriptions of the most stirring blends of technology, art, beauty, and adventure.

German cars are synonymous with quality and prestige. A strong claim can be made that automobile transportation was primarily invented in Germany, which today is still home to some of the most important names in the international auto industry. This book retraces the story of some of the most significant German automakers and their models, covering over a hundred years of history, and presenting legendary creations that have left their mark on the auto's evolution and in the hearts of many enthusiasts. German manufacturers have always played an essential role in the automobile sector, at first with names such as Horch, Auto-Union and Maybach, and later with brands like Audi, BMW, Mercedes Benz and Porsche, which today are considered among the world's most prestigious for quality, style and performance. This book presents the most important models in German car manufacturing history, from the Benz-Patent-Motorwagen 1 of 1886 through the race cars of the pre-war period, the cars of the economic boom, and the ever-famous Porsche 911 and the brand new bestsellers from Stuttgart, Munich and Ingolstadt.

Since the days of Henry Ford's Model T, American cars have dominated not only the market but also the imagination and desires of millions of people throughout the world. Dedicated to the exciting history of this icon of past and present times, this volume presents a complete overview of the history of the American car, with text written by one of the most famous journalists in the filed, enhanced by illustrations that capture the excitement, aesthetics, and the charm of this everlasting legend. Many books provide a basic catalog of American automobiles from ca. 1900 to 2000. This volume takes a very different approach: in addition to detailing engineering and styling advances, it also presents the broad social and economic environment and demonstrates how and why the automobile has evolved and thrived so stongly throughout the United States. Cars may be a universal product, but that's not to say that they are the same everywhere. Viewed from afar, American cars (and trucks) look too big, have engines that are too large, and are extravagant for solo commuting. Considering the American continent's vast extent, its wide, open roads, readily available parking and low energy prices, it is understandable why American automobiles differ in design, engineering, and size from those found elsewhere in the world. Beginning with the automobile's early days and Henry Ford's invention of the assembly line and continuing until modern times, this intriguing, richly illustrated volume traces the entire history of American automobiles. Whether luxury-market or average-family models, the American car is a dream possession and cult object famous and desired throughout the world.
