Motor cars: general interest

In a classic car photography book packed with an eclectic mix of automotive images, Lance Cole (author of the Classic Car Adventure) presents a stunning collection of photographs of old cars of all marques and types captured in many locations. Across Allards to Bugattis, Citroens DKWs, Porsches, Saabs, Triumphs, Voisins, VWs, and a pot-pourri of well-known classics, the author has journeyed far and wide to create a wonderful diary of classic car moments amid the great enthusiasm for nostalgia on wheels. A mix of cars, people, portraits, action and atmosphere all blend in to a colourful journey across the classic car world in a diverse blend of marques and eras. 250 colour and black and white images populate an odyssey across a landscape of cars in an interesting format that pitches multi-million pound cars alongside more humble names. Seen on the move and static, Lance Cole's photographs capture the essence of metal sculpture, light falling upon paint and form, and the design hallmarks of old cars prior to the age of digital design authoritarianism when so many cars look similar. If you love old metal, patina, paint, leather, and enthusiasm, all captured across vintage, veteran, classic and modern classic metal, then the Classic Car Gallery is a rare memento of the cars of yesteryear seen in the celebration of their today. AUTHOR: Lance Cole has been a motoring and aviation writer, author and PR for over 30 years. He is also an internationally published photographer and illustrator. Lance has a background and training in industrial design, motoring journalism, and car testing. The author of over 20 books (including eight for Pen and Sword) and more than 100 articles for major magazines and newspapers, Lance is well known for his interest in design and driving. He has driven and photographed old cars all over the world. He currently lives in Wiltshire with his Australian wife and yearns for a return to the outback of beyond where old cars rule. 200 colour illustrations
