Motoring History By L T C Rolt 159 Pages Soft Cover 1964 Indexed
The immense popularity of veteran and vintage car events and the number of books which have appeared on the subject reflect the great growth of interest in motoring history. This is a comprehensive pictorial survey of this fascinating subject, containing in all 188 illustrations. From the steam vehicles and the `horseless carriages' of the 19th-century pioneers, text and picture lead the reader by way of the stately Edwardians and the light cars of the '20s to the potent streamlined machines of the present day. In this vivid cavalcade of motoring the classic sports and racing cars are not forgotten, while pictures of motoring conditions at different periods illustrate the gradual growth of the traffic problems that beset us today.
L.T.C.Rolt is a well-known authority on all forms of transport. He has had nearly 4o years motoring experience, mostly in vintage cars, and was the author of Horseless Carriage, the first popular history of the motor car in England. He is a founder member of the Vintage Sports Car Club, and was responsible for organizing the motoring side of the Anglo-American Vintage Car Rally in 1954.
