Lots of historical stuff, some great color reproduction. Just noted a couple minor historical errors, one about Ferrari , the other crediting Shelby for the 260 Cobra design from the original AC-Zephyr. Review on SportsCarDigest.
Now, for collectors who want every book on Shelby and Cobra, the next book to watch out for on Cobra & Shelby is entitled "SHELBY the authorized biography " coming out of England by Rinsey Mills due April 15, 2012 --don't know who is going to publish that Stateside or even who is distributing it Stateside...Amazon.com is already advertising the 464- page hardbound tome for only $23.10 but I'll believe a book that's at least a third larger than the Comer Cobra book actually goes for that price when I heard someone stateside actually bought one at Amazon's price Stateside and has it in their hot little hands...

How many historical errors did you find in the last two Rinsey books on the Cobra, I lost count.
I'll take the word of Mr Comer vs the words of Mr Mills any days, for at least Mr Comer actually speaks with the people he is writing about. Unlike some others who must gather information off the web and publish it as their own
