★★★★★
“The book is an encyclopedic coverage of the company’s history. This is not meant for reading cover-to-cover. Rather, it is a superb authoritative reference book that provides details on all aspects on the Packard. It won the Cugnot Prize for good reason, as few automotive history books come close to it’s scale and depth of coverage. No library is complete without a copy. Thank you America’s Packard Museum for providing new copies!.” Mark V.
