A lavishly illustrated history of the automobile - the marques, the machines, and the magic.

From the first motor cars to today's supercars and environmentally-friendly electric models, this is the ultimate ebook about the history of the car.

The ebook also features virtual photographic tours of some of the most iconic cars from each era, such as the Rolls Royce Silver Ghost, Ford Model T, Lamborghini Countach, and McLaren Speedtail, while cross-sections of key engines explore the driving force behind them. Lavishly illustrated feature spreads detail the stories of the individuals, machines, and visionary ideas that helped create the car world's most famous marques and made brands such as Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Aston Martin, and Cadillac household names.

If you love cars, then you'll love The Car Book. It is simply a must-have title for all motoring enthusiasts.
