Synopsis
Aston Martin has produced some of the finest sports cars made. One of the company's most exciting periods was under the leadership of Augustus Bertelli. The company's innovative cars, built between 1926 and 1940, were outstanding in terms of reliability and performance, and were proved in that toughest of motor sport classes, endurance racing - in particular the Le Mans 24 Hours race. This book looks at the cars produced by Aston Martin under the watchful eye of Bertelli, and covers the cars made by the company up to the start of the Second World War. It includes the 1.5-litre First, Second and Third Series cars and the 2-Litre range from 1936. These Aston Martins of the 1920s and 1930s - International, Le Mans, Mark II, Ulster and Speed models - are all covered in this book. Beyond Bertelli's era, the book sheds light on the contributions made by engineer Claude Hill and owner Gordon Sutherland. It explores their innovative concept cars, 'Donald Duck' and Atom, which played a pivotal role in shaping the company's post-war success under David Brown. Accompanied by a rich collection of contemporary and present-day photographs, this book stands as the definitive reference work solely dedicated to these beloved cars, revered by a passionate community of owners fostered by the Aston Martin Owners Club. Furthermore, these historic cars continue to enjoy great popularity, making this book a must-have for enthusiasts and admirers alike., This book charts the history of Aston Martin from 1926 through to 1940, and explores the cars that were produced by the company during those years when 'Bert' Bertelli ruled the roost and produced a series of world beating cars. The book covers the First, Second and Third series cars and the 2-Litre 15/98 range, and also takes a look at the Atom to see how the pre-war cars influenced Aston Martin in the David Brown era from 1948.

- s***p (548)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBrand new and sealed, high quality, great price below retail. Looks great. Packaged well, shipped soon and arrived quickly. Only issue was communications. For the first couple of days after shipping there was no tracking info. When I inquired about this I received what read like a computer generated response strangely asking me for info to identify the product, even though the message I sent was through eBay and for this product. But, then, tracking info appeared after a few days.

- a***a (18629)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI can't "rate this item" because I'm not planning to read it. I bought the book to donate to the Bo Brown Memorial Gay & Lesbian Collection in the Sterne Library & Archives at the University of Alabama in Birmingham where I'm positive it will make a great addition to the collection . . . BUT . . . I CAN say that the seller did a great job in handling this transaction. Book was carefully packaged & was promptly shipped - - - and was just as described . . . so there's that :-} Thanks!
