Book by auto editors of Consumer Guide. It offers photos, drawings, history and interviews with the principal personalities involved with some of the most wonderful and some of the most horrible automobiles of all time. Going through this book makes you either crave what was never produced, or better understand why some weren't. References are cited; research and writing is done extremely well. There are witty chapter headings, such as "The Cars That Couldn't Have Saved Studebaker" and "A Case of the Willys". There are insights into the organizational politics and the artistic techniques that go on in the automotive industry. You also get to peek in on the very individualistic stylists and power/money hungry executives. Published 1994
