Not Just Another Dull Land Rover Book
This is not just another dull Land Rover reference book.

Mike Gould has a unique and very readable style; his book not only covers the history of Land Rover decade by decade but also includes a huge amount of associated information about the brand, the characters and background, even the elephant!

The book is beautifully presented in a large format style containing a huge number of high quality photographs and diagrams.

A superb read not just for the Land Rover enthusiast.

landrover scrapbook
i purchased this book for my grandson 21st birthday as he is an landrover enthusiast. the book details the landrover from its early development up to the present time. plenty of great photos, with infromative reading. i had the pleasure of reading it before posting it off to him. he has since informed me that he is delighted with it, when we meet up later this year, i look forward to going through the book together, as we are both landrover geeks. i have ordered books from amazon before, and this book like all the others arrived on time and was in very good condition.
