Veteran and Vintage Cars by Peter Roberts

From Daimler and Benz to Bugattis and Stutzes, Hispano-Suizas and Duesenbergs, Tin Lizzies and Rolls-Royces, Peter Roberts gives an amusing account of early cars and motoring. Amongst many topics, the book covers the early history of self-propulsion, the early stunts like the Peking to Paris race in 1907, Prohibition cars, early lady drivers and royal motorists. Over 150 colour and black and white pictures illustrate the personalities, the races and, above all, the most beautiful cars of the veteran and vintage motoring era.
