I'm recommending "MUSCLE - America's Legendary Performance Cars" book by authors Randy Leffingwell & Darwin Holmstrom - ISBM# 978-0-7603-3305-1, published by Motorbooks 2008 Paperback 384 pages . Link to Amazon -
http://www.amazon.com/Muscle-America...3740725&sr=8-1 Amazon priced at $16.47, list at $24.95 .
This is not atypical coffee-table book on Muscle cars but a well-written good-sized book which tells why America fell in love with performance cars back in the 50s-70's and why we've re-kindled the passion we've always had for these cars. Great color pictures throughout.
Warning - published in 2008 so written in 2007 there is only one sentence on the 5th generation Camaro and no concept pictures (we've seen them all anyway) - plenty of text and pictures of the 1st-4th generation Camaros. Enjoy this book for the glory and memories of all Muscle cars rather than seeking more on our 2010 Camaros...
So whether you're a Muscle Car veteran or new enthusiast this book tells the story and show the pictures of why we love our cars... Enjoy.
