In this unabridged compact edition, over sixty of the most important - and beautiful - cars ever made give a unique overview of the key moments of car design worldwide, from the 'horseless carriages' of the early twentieth century to the thoroughbred Ferrari Enzo Ferrari of 2002. Each car is introduced by world-renowned car journalist, Robert Cumberford, who highlights the history and essential design features of each vehicle, and is illustrated with exquisite photographs by one of the world's leading car photographers. Biographies of the key car designers from the last hundred years, a full technical glossary and a directory of museums conclude the book.
