Book Overview

Porsche's simple, reliable, and freshly styled 356 became the cornerstone of the marque's long-term success. Unveiled 50 years ago in Geneva, the car's lines and rear engine-design informed the construction of later models and quickly garnered a devoted following on both sides of the Atlantic. This all-color model history explains the brilliance of Ferdinand Porsche's 1949 design, charts the 356's competition history, and forms a persuasive argument...

Great Book!!!

It is a great book, a must have for any 356 enthusiast. I also recommend it for the ones who doesn't know much but want to know more about 356's.

Return Of A Favorite Book

First published as a hard cover book in 1980, this paperback reprint of an old favorite is an absolute must-have for any 356 enthusiast. A first-rate journalist, Denis "Jenks" Jenkinson will be familiar to readers of Motor Sport, or Road & Track in the '60s and '70s. The book starts with a brief history of Porsche, then moves into the performance and racing history of the 356 models. Throughout, Jenks describes his adventures in his own 356, as well as his many drives in factory street and racing 356s. His stories are accompanied by many good black and white photos. Osprey has updated this version of the book with a color photo section that adds to the enjoyment. Great writing, good photos -- a bargain at the price.
