If Alfa fans ever needed confirmation that the Fiat takeover was a lot more than mere badge engineering, then here is the proof. The second edition of this well-received book chronicles the wealth of new models launched by the marque since 1986 and the ground-breaking power units that drive them. David Owen provides an authoritative insight into post-war Alfa Romeos, from the 1900 to the sleek GT coupé available from the end of 2003. The lavishly illustrated text includes driving impressions, buying hints and specifications, together with marque information.

Alfa Romeo - Always with Passion Very informative history of Alfa Romeo that appears very factual and comprehensive based on my experience. It was written from a British perspective, focusing considerably on Alfa in England; therefore, the US models and perspective was somewhat underplayed. Still, it is a worthwhile volume for any Alfa Romeo enthusiast's library.
Nothing Special Hybrid hardbound coffee table book combining the lesser aspects of Joe Benson's "Buyer's Guide" and the late Osprey/Octopus Great Marques Alfa picture book edition of the series. Why bother....
