Automobiles Books

Anyone whose heart has been stolen by Chevrolet's Camaro will have their heart stolen by this well written, sturdy book. With its multitude of color photos, and its plethora of facts and information, the book covers the Camaro in a chronological fashion, from beginning to end, beautifully. I would recommend this book to all Camaro lovers.

This is an Automotive Quarterly book, and anyone who knows AQ knows it's the most authoritative source on auto history and development. This book does not disappoint. You'll find after page of detailed anecdotes on the building of Camaro from GMs first panicked race to catch the Mustang through increasingly more stylish later generations, complete with 600+ pictures, many from inside GM, of design ideas, built and cast aside. What's more, Gary Witzenburg's prose is fast reading and objective, and filled with insightful quotes from Camaroistas that were there. Great book on "Chevy's fast friend." And if you didn't know that one meaning of Camaro is friend in French, read this book!

I was drawn to this book because my last name is Cameron, but this turned out to be a very interesting book. The book was fascinating, well put together and well researched. If you are at all interested in old cars and the history of what makes them special you need to read this book.

What a gem this book is!
If you love the Ford Capri then this book is for you.
Covers each model in detail and a section on racing Capri's too.No matter which mark Capri you love the this is the book for you.Even though this book doesnt have any colour photos the black & white photos still make this book worthwhile.And,the book still deserves 5 stars.

If you can find a copy of this book keep it.

The fifth title in a six-book "The Reference Shelf 2004" series, The Car And Its Future is a compilation of informed and informative articles drawn from respected publications, and additional article abstracts, as well as a bibliography of other sources. Enhanced with a bibliography, a listing of websites, "Additional Periodical Articles with Abstracts", and a comprehensive index, The Car And Its Future is accessibly organized into six major sections: Life Behind the Wheel; Marketing and Design; Traffic and Safety; Insurance and Auto Repair; The Auto Industry: A Global Perspective; and Alternative Fuels. The result is a well-rounded, non-biased, and substantively instructive overview that will hold special interest and value for academia and the the interested non-specialist general reader alike.

The only immortality that I know isn't carved in some stone monument. It's the thoughts and memories recorded in the human heart, echoing down from one generation to another. If you want to be remembered, then write down your experiences, your dreams, and the adventure that is your life.

This book is filled with all the information you need to make an informed decision without breaking the bank. There's not a lot of information out there that covers the wide spectrum of new technology that is intergraded now within stereo systems. However this easy to read guide is filled with it. A+ Thanks!

Great book for reference when you are getting ready to buy a new car. Better info than any other book out there. I've been using Jack Gillis' books for at least 15 years eveytime I even theink I want a new or used car.

My 3-1/2-year-old son just loves this books. He not only likes the overlays with the different vehicles getting more and more parts each time, he is able to follow the picture stories in the background and "read" them to me! Definitely a 5-star choice----Now if they'd just reprint it!!

A little background study with this book is a wise investment. What I like best is how this book presents the "other side" and takes you inside the mindset of the salesman: the deal from the seller's perspective. The author reveals certain "trade secrets" and explains why the wife, and not the husband, is the most feared element by the salesman. He also tells why shopping and buying on separate days is vital. Discover why you should take a friend along. Great chapters called "Do's, Don'ts" and "The 36 Most Asked Questions." Having the knowledge in this book could save you thousands of dollars!

This is probably one of the most useful books I have ever bought.

Bourque guided me step-by-step through the process of buying a car online.

My experience was excellent. I got the vehicle I wanted at a price no other "offline" dealer was prepared to touch. I even managed to get them to throw in hundreds of dollars in extras.

I wish everything was this easy. Good job Pierre.
