More about the book

The book opens in an era characterized by brute-force engines encased in bodies of sublime beauty, and closes at the time when an emphasis on weight saving, finesse, and the first inklings of newer technologies were coming to the fore. Few of these photos have been published before and the collection includes many rare color images.
