Fans of sleek, stylish, fast cars will immediately spot this cover. Codling (editor, GP Racing magazine; Formula 1 Drive To Survive, the Unofficial Companion: The Stars, Strategy, Technology, and History of F1) walks readers through the history of Ferruccio Lamborghini’s serial entrepreneurship, with emphasis on his high-performing, concept-bending, design-forward cars, beginning in the 1960s. Organized by model (Miura; Diablo; Gallardo; To the Future), Codling highlights notable Lamborghini engineers and uses interviews and publications to engage readers in Lamborghini’s personal and business history. Stunning publicity photographs, live-action photos, engine close-ups, and ample specs on each model offer appeal on several levels.
VERDICT Slightly oversize (about 10 by 12 inches), this book impresses at a quick browse and delivers satisfying details to readers conversant in compression ratios and engine lubrication.
