Aside from toys, I also love books. In fact, one of my other personas on the internet is the BookWizard :-)
I cannot resist coffee table books that feature awesome cars and having posted my Mclarens in the previous post, I decided to see what book was available about the marque.
Well I ran into one on Amazon and it looks like one awesome book.
Here is the description from the product page on Amazon:
"The McLaren marque has an illustrious history spanning more than six
decades at the forefront of both motor racing and road car design. This
third edition of
McLaren The Cars, first released by
award-winning publisher Coterie Press in 2009 is, and it's hard to
beleive, an improvement on one of the greatest-ever titles on a single
marque, produced by an independent publisher.
This expanded
edition of ‘The Cars’ covers every model produced by McLaren between
1964 and 2012. This 320-page, large format, hard-back book features
each and every race car, road car, and even a ‘soapbox’, listed in
chronological order from the McLaren M1A in 1964, through to the 2011
MP4-26 Formula One car, as well as the stunning new MP4-12C supercar,
which will hit the roads in the hands of the first lucky customers in
2012.
With in-depth text on each car, a foreword by Ron Dennis,
chapter introductions by McLaren stars Emerson Fittipaldi, Niki Lauda,
Alain Prost, Mika Häkkinen and Lewis Hamilton, as well as a
comprehensive appendix section covering race results and specifications,
this is far more than just a picture book. Produced with the full
co-operation and endorsement of the McLaren Group, it is the definitive
history of all the McLaren cars."
Interesting right?
