Aston Martin Power, Beauty and Soul De David Dowsey
In Aston Martin: Power, Beauty and Soul, author David Dowsey explores the colourful history of Aston Martin, from its humble beginnings in a London garage in 1913, to its takeover by the Ford Motor Company in 1987 and sale in 2007.
Many of those intimately involved at the various stages of the car's history offer fascinating insights into the development of the Aston Martin and amusing behind-the-scenes anecdotes.
Mike Harbar s delightful renderings add a charming bespoke dimension to the book. With lush full-color photography, comprehensive specifications of every model from the early DB right up to the V8 Vantage Roadster, and production statistics and racing results, Aston Martin: Power, Beauty and Soul is an indispensable reference for motor enthusiasts and a book that truly does justice to the Aston Martin name.
Si le prestige de la marque est désormais bien établi, Aston Martin a connu des difficultés financières de manière quasiment continue.
Le constructeur britannique a aujourd’hui plus d’un siècle grâce à la foi des hommes qui se sont succédés à son chevet.
