Produktbeschreibung

Since the arrival of the Lancia Aurelia B20 Grand Tourer (GT) in 1953, GTs have been the ultimate in luxury performance cars. This book, the first in a series of three, tells the stories behind some of the most glamorous and alluring vehicles of the fifties, sixties and seventies - the Grand Tourers. Since the arrival of the Lancia Aurelia B20 GT in 1953, manufacturers have competed - with both popular culture and each other - to find that perfect balance of luxury, accommodation, and sporting ability. With nearly 150 pictures and written from a social as well as technical perspective, this is a fascinating book with a choice of cars that will cause many heated arguments amongst motoring enthusiasts!

Autorenporträt

Sam Dawson has been a devoted fan of classic cars in general for as long as he can remember, so it was inevitable that he would turn his enthusiasm and writing skills to a book of some kind. Sam has always been fascinated by the glamorous eras of the ?50s, ?60s and ?70s, and coming from a politics/sociological background academically makes for a cultural, as much as a technical, study of the most alluring class of car from this time. Sam is a contributor to Classics Monthly, Classics and Practical Classics Cars magazines.?Following my telephone call, I just want to confirm that I have written for Classics Monthly, Practical Classics and Classic Cars Magazine (originally IIRC it just mentioned Classics Monthly).
