Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Very interesting information
The information in the book is very detailed with a lot of photographs that I had never seen in any other articles or books. Owning one the very first Mercury convertibles I have read and bought many magazines and books, this is truly a great addition to any library.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - History of Ford Motor styling in the 30s and 40s
A very detailed discusion of the Ford Motor Co. Styling Department and the story behind some of the most acclaimed automobile designs from Ford's golden years, The "fat fendered" ford products, the inception of the Lincoln Cotinental and the 39 Mercury are all intersting stories for auto enthusiasts.

The book is well researched and detailed with good photos. The auther has given attention to personalities, some of whom I personnally knew and who were well drawn by Mr. Dominguez.

A good read for those interested in this narrow subject.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Could not be better
Anyone interested in car design must read and keep this book. Should be a mandatory reading in design schools and design departments of every automaker. Either as a historical document or as an artistic reference, this book is a feast of information and images.
The author does not pretend to be an amateur car designer but instead humbly becomes a communication channel between the reader, Bob Gregorie and the memory of Edsel Ford, and a very good one indeed.
Kudos to Henry Dominguez for not having succumbed to the temptation of using modern colour pictures and having gone to the process of selection those amazing images from The Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village archives. Kudos to Henry Domiguez for such a fine book.
