Barris Cars of the Stars
"George and David Featherstone, his co-author, have been writing books for several years—books that have covered much of George’s career and I have to admit to owning most, if not all, of them."
"New fuels and their relationships to old cars are also explored in detail, along with an interesting history of the constantly changing formulation of car fuels. This chapter alone makes the books purchase worthwhile for any vintage car owner."
"This book covers the rise of the Studebaker but at least three quarters of its content centers on the post war period."
"Perhaps a copy of this book should be required reading in the boardrooms of the remaining US companies as they struggle to keep their heads above water."
