About This Item
New York:: Macmillan, 1972.. 1st American Edition.. Hardbound . BINDING/CONDITION: red boards; a Near Fine book, with a Near Fine dust jacket; publisher's price on the jacket flap is intact.. small 8vo (about 7.75 inches tall) . Index. Description: Illustrations by John W Wood and others. Following is taken from the jacket blurb: ''This is the sixth volume in the Macmillan Cars of the World in Color series. This coves the period 1913-1923. In many ways this was the period of the 'conventional' car -- in the sense that car design had largely settled down to a pattern embracing a front-mounted, water-cooled engine driving a sliding pinion gearbox to the rear axle. In eighty pages of beautifully detailed color illustrations familiar and unfamiliar vehicles are depicted, and all are fully described in a succinct, but detailed, text. Names like Morris, Citroen, Fiat and Lancia are familiar today, but what of the British Carden the Belgian Minerva, the French Zedel and the Japanese Lila? This book tells the part that these famous and lesser known makes played in the development of the passenger motor car from 1913 to 1923.'' Also includes eight figure drawings.
