BRAND NEW book, may have a few scuffs from customers browsing the shelves. See photos; some wear to the cover and signs of mud to the cover and inside front cover. We previously attended outdoor events with our tradestand, so sadly this has become exposed to the elements there. Priced accordingly.

Big Book of Land Rover Foreword by Stephen Vokins
The Second World War proved, among other things, the value of a basic
4-wheel drive vehicle of rugged construction. The success of the
American Jeep inspired the Wilkes' brothers Maurice and Spencer, who ran
the Rover Car Company, that a British version was likely to be well
received.
Launched in 1948, customers were
never in short supply for their creation, the Land Rover, although
there were some unexpected owners for such a sparse and utilitarian car,
including King George VI and Winston Churchill. Once the British Army
embraced it as their vehicle of choice, the Land Rover's place in
motoring's Hall of Fame was secured.
Since
those days, the company has gone on to invent the concept of the luxury
4x4 with the launch of the Range Rover in 1970, and has added further
to the distinguished stable with the Discovery and the Freelander.
The Land Rover has truly conquered the globe - find out how inside...
See photo above for example of the inside. Nice book for the enthusiast, good coffee table book too.
