The
Convertible : An Illustrated History of a Dream Machine by Ken Vose, Kenneth E. Vose, Kenneth Rose
Automotive expert Ken Vose traces the evolution of the convertible
as car and cultural icon, from the earliest ragtop to the open car of the
future. Vose knows that every car (and every driver) has a story, and he
recounts the best ones about classic Pierce-Arrows, Packards, Speedsters,
Roadsters, Dusenbergs, and Bugattis-as well as today's Corvettes, Miatas,
BMWs, Mustangs, and Prowlers. This witty tribute includes more than 125
photographs, illustrations, and other memorabilia, including rare vintage
shots and art created specifically for this volume. Amazon.com Hardcover - 120 pages (November 1999)
