A Comprehensive account of Bentley Cars from inception through to date of publication, with much previously untold information. The book has been divided into four main parts. The Men (Founders & Successors). The Money (Idealists, Millionaire, Receiver & Managers) Motor Racing (Early Victories, Long distance Legends, The Byfleet Benefit & Old Soldiers never die) & The Motor Cars (Doncaster Doctrine - Loved & Hated), Silent Sports Car, Less ostentatious Radiator & The Overdue Phoenix. The Appendices include: Inventory of parts at Bentley Motors 1926, Ownership of Racing Bentleys, 'Labels' - Badges & Mascots and much more. This Lovely Book of 302pp is a balanced combination of Text, Photo and Facsimile of Contemporary Race Report & Sales Brochures, that brings the Cars, the People and times very much to life. Very good book and jacket aside from a little shelf wear along the top edge
