The Man Who Built the Best Car in the World - Tapa dura

'Not enough motoring books are written like children's stories, and Sewell tells the tale of Rolls-Royce, and then the "Best Car in the World", the Silver Ghost, in simple language with beautiful illustrations. There's even a technical section with a detailed history of early Rolls. Great for junior motorists' --Auto Express

'The book is enhanced with superb colour scenes imagined by the artist Stefan Marjoram, as well as some of his pencil sketches and also beautifully bound and presented. The book is worth the price purely to admire the superb pencil sketch on the endpapers of an 1913 Alpine Trial team car at speed, quite magnificent draughtsmanship. Sewell can rest easy' --Speed Readers

'Sewell's last book has been beautifully illustrated by Stefan Marjoram, and would make a delightful addition to any child's - or adult's - motoring library' --The Automobile

Charles Rolls understood cars - how they were made and how to sell them - but Henry Royce didn't want to design just any car; he was determined to build the best car in the world. The meeting of these two great minds resulted in one of the most iconic feats of engineering then or indeed since. In THE MAN WHO MADE THE BEST CAR IN THE WORLD, beautifully illustrated by Stefan Marjoram, critic and car enthusiast Brian Sewell tells the story of Henry Royce and the creation of the Silver Ghost.
