Description

First complete chronicle of the visual evolution of the American automobile.

More than just a graphically illustrated chronology of car design, this fascinating history covers the intricate links between style changes, popular tastes, and automotive management decisions.

The author traces the artistic development of mass-pro-duced cars from converted buggies and bicycle-built rigs to touring cars, square closed cars of the ’20s, transitional shapes of the ’30s and ’40s, and slab-sided postwar sedans, to the sleek, streamlined models of the ’60s and ’70s.

Hardback in generally good condition with good dust jacket.
