Great "My First Mustang" Book

If I was just beamed down to this planet and needed to learn about 1964.5 to 2001 Mustangs in a day then this would be the book. Nice, concise and lots of pretty pictures. I did expect a lot more cut-away drawings from DK however since I do love their travel guides for that feature. For those who are only interested in the first generation Mustangs (1964.5-1973), this book is not for you since half of the book is devoted to the 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation Mustangs. For twenty bucks, a nice addition to any automobile enthusist library however.

Great Book on a GREAT car

The book has a lot of info.I may be 12 and a girl but I LOVE Mustangs.I can refer to my book to get info on a 69 429 Boss.But I wish it had the original list price!The pictures are great! Not only does it have old Mustangs but they also have newer mustangs as well.I enjoy seeing the evalution of the Mustang

Awesome book-- for any Mustang Lover

This was a gift for my boyfriend--a Mustang owner and lover! He loves it! It's very informative, has great pictures, and information on the history of the Mustang. This book includes the number of models reproduced and he loved that aspect! Not only does it include info on the cars itself but Mustang Memorabilia!! Too Cool of a Book!

Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About The Ford Mustang!!

This is one great book. The cover for starters grabs your attention and when you open the book, Wow. Great photos, information, and the history of the Mustang all rolled up in one excellent book. I have always loved the Ford Mustang, as I am sure many of you who are considering this book are. And I promise, you will not be disappointed with this book. From development to its muscle car era, even great info on the Shelby Mustangs,and the late models, including the new Bullitt for 2001, this book has it all. The price is a bit high, but when you see this book, you will know the money spent is well worth the price of the book. This is a DK book, who makes some of the best books that explain things in laymens terms, for me what a lifesaver! I have the Star Wars books they produced, and this Mustang book carries on in that tradition of explaining to the reader what things mean, why one car had this option, and this car did not, how many cars were produced in a model year, what motors were offered, when the motors were first offered, why Carroll Shelby stopped making the Shelby Mustangs in 1970, why the Mustang has the following it does, and so much more. I would type more, but I am limited to so many words, but take my word, this is the Ultimate Mustang book. For the beginner just discovering Mustangs, this book is a great starting point, and for those of us who have known what it is about a Mustang, this book just adds to the mystique and does not disappoint. I say buy it. If you love the Mustang as much as I do, [your] money will be well spent. Just a great book all around!!
