Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Colour Copy. First Edition. This book which has drawings by George A Oliver traces the genealogy of the Grand Prix car from 1895 to 1956.The most important cars through the years are described and discussed in detail, while a number of "voiturettes" and many of the interesting but less successful offshoots from the main theme of development, also receive attention.
