“Big, Well Organized, Well Written and Made — Great book.  Nice mix of detailed historical text and pictures. Unlike so many recent titles, the pictures are placed on the same or adjacent pages on which they are described.  Also well organized helping my scattered brain to keep track of Porsche history as it’s unfolded by the author.  Binding holding together so far which isn’t always the case for a big book.”
