This illustrated history covers every model produced by Rolls-Royce, from the little 10hp vehicle of 1904 to their 1996 luxury cars. Compiled with the full cooperation of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Ltd., this exceptional volume provides detailed technical specs and chassis numbers, a Rolls-Royce company chronology from 1904-96, and is filled with many previously unpublished illustrations of the cars produced by Rolls-Royce (and Bentley since 1933).
While not the largest reference on Rolls-Royce & Bentley, this book is one of the most pleasurable. It is very well presented, concise, informative and readable. Beginning with the first Royce cars of 1904, the book continues chronologically through the 1996 models.
The numerous illustrations are very well selected. Especially nice are chassis line drawings for most models and many good interior photos. The color photo gallery in the center is beautiful.
Another useful feature is a technical specification chart, including chassis numbers, for each series. If you would like to invest in just one book to tell the story of Rolls-Royce & Bentley, this would be an excellent choice.
