Think of this compendium as a year’s worth of ultra-high-end car magazines but with much more upscale presentation and stunningly reproduced photography.

Delage, France’s Finest Car

by Daniel Cabart, Claude Rouxel, David Burgess-Wise

“The Beautiful French Car” is not a slogan cooked up by a clever press person but an accolade given by the public. The serious literature on this marque is quite thin and this book goes a long way towards painting a definitive picture of the entire lifespan of the company, not just the glamour decade from the late 1920s onwards.

From Scratch – Ferrari 330 GT

by Christian Martin

Honda: Road to the Red Zone, Sports Story / Voyage en Zone Rouge, l’histoire sportive

by Lionel Lucas

You see Hondas every day; you see books every day. But wait. What you don’t see every day are the Type R versions covered here and you definitely don’t see ambitious, creative, and fun books like this often!

Alfa Romeo Sprint Speciale

by Patrick Dasse

Leave it to this author to keep finding topics that have been neglected in the literature, or, in this case, by history altogether. Hundreds of pages, hundreds of photos, and an odd case of Alfa’s in-house model playing second fiddle to an outside offering.

Motorcycle Passion

by Michael Köckritz, editor

A big, juicy book. Lots of photos. Interesting layouts and typefaces. It’s easy to put this book down and think, Why? As in Why Bother? Not so fast.
