DESCRIPTION:
This is a very readable, pratical, and enjoyable book about the only American automobile named after a president.”Choice
Death by Paragraph Tom Bonsall books about the Edsel and Studebaker are excellent. This book does not match either of them, partly because the story in inherently less interesting. It is complete, comprehensive, and well organized. It tells the story of Lincoln as a competition with Cadillac. The story bogs down after 1970 since there isn't much to write about. Reading about what interior fabrics and power accessories were inc. Enjoyable reference Scott K Book is OK, could've used a few more colour photos. Not disappointing, just a little dry here and there.. "Great" according to Bob McNeir. This was a gift. Great book
Today, it is vying for preeminence in what has suddenly become an international market. The Continental produced in the 1940s was one of the first cars to be universally recognized by classic car cognoscenti. The list of Lincoln-built cars in the postwar era certified with classicor comparable milestone” status by various sanctioning bodies is likewise lengthy. The Mark II tops that list, but the slab-sided Continental sedans of the 1960s led the industry in design, and the forthcoming Mark 9 promises to continue the tradition.
