A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

Car Collector Magazine, December 2007

“Benford’s Corvette features a nice mix of photography by James Mann, who adds a touch of elegance and freshness to this subject of Corvette collecting while Tom knocks out seven chapters that follow the C-Generations from 1953 to the present day. This book has significantly more text than the other two, as Tom maintains a running commentary about design and engineering throughout the chapters, making this a somewhat more interesting book to read. Mann has managed to hit all of our favorite photographic clichés and do so in such a way as to show the best attributes of dashboards, trim, and even engine compartments. For a little book, Benford has packed a lot of data, text, and imagery into 192 pages. This one will make a great stocking stuffer for the Corvette guy or gal in your life.”

Cars & Parts, November 2007

“The result is a fast-paced, colorful, encapsulated history of the legendary American icon that is Corvette ... this book will enhance any collection.”
