Good Compilation of Historic Photos
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
And that's how I would sum up this book... a good compilation of historic photos. The title indicates the book is a "photographic history" so I wasn't too disappointed to see a gazillion old, black & white photos with simple captions. Personally I would have liked to see more information in many of the captions in the way of car models and years for every photo in the book. The quality of the photos seems to be lacking, and I'm guessing it's because a cheaper printing process was probably used. But in my opinion, the sheer volume of photos helps make up for what this book lacks in print quality and information. I'm glad I bought it.
Lots and Lots of Pictures, limited information about them.

If you're looking for graphical reference material about police cars this is the book to get. However, don't expect to get much more than one line of captioning about them. This is a photographic history book, there is no text about engine types or anything along that line. If you want information of that sort, you'll have to dig up a tech manual. If you want to look at more than 800 different photos of police cars, this is what you want. The biggest disappointment is that there are no color photos, it's 100% black and white.
