Commodore Lion King: Celebrating 21 Years by Bill Tuckey-Hardcover-0-646-38231-4

Most books about the creation of a great car are one-dimensional. They record history, but not the emotion. Designing, building and selling cars is not a business of mechanical things, nor even lately of images generated on computer screens. It is about people. It is about the driven, about how those people are consumed by the idea that they can every day take one more tiny step forward to advance the DNA of a unique transportation concept that began late last century. Sometimes that step is more bold, more risky. Such was the Holden Commodore. Over 21 years from its spectacular birth through what sometimes promised spectacular failure, it triumphed over the astonishing peaks and valleys that graphed Holden's progress towards today's success. This is a book about the people and passions that made it all possible - and the stories nobody could tell you at the time.
