Good Book, but try to get one for less. August 4, 2008
Good "Flashy" Nice Leatherbound book with a Actual if not replica I assume Corvette C-6 Emblem that you can feel. Very Elegant first of its kind that I have seen done for Corvette. Nice pictures. Some already seen Before. Others I have not. Example Astro Corvette/Concepts, Etc. Huge book. weighs, couple Big Two Page Spreads. Book Retails for $ 75. I was lucky enough to get this baby for $12 +s/h shipped through a seller here, Despite it taking 3 weeks.
Thank God It came in Great Condition I struck it out!. Book has tons of pages, only other that I know has a couple more as of now is The Complete Corvette Every Model Since 1953 by Mike Mueller. This book Is done by Jerry Burton, America's Sports Car, Yesterday, Today,Tomorrow. BY HLLA and mbi. Get it.

Corvette: America's Sports Car: Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow March 8, 2007
This book is a great book for anyone that is a car lover or corvette lover. I bought this book for my boyfriend who owns a corvette and he absoulty loves the book. It is well done and well put together. The cover is neat with the corvette emblem on it and the leather is nice also. Defintly another book I will buy in the future for anyone of my friends.
 Great book for Vette-Heads March 2, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
In Corvette: America's Sports Car-Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow, Jerry Burton shares the comprehensive story of Chevrolet's longest running model and one of America's all time favorite sports cars. First produced in 1953, this car - as Burton so aptly describes - became a pop culture symbol for freedom, excitement and fun.
I applaud the detailed information listed in the book, especially the interviews with the original Corvette designers who fought hard to produce this car. For the "vette-heads," there is plenty of technical information about the nuts and bolts of the Corvette. For other readers, Burton tells the compelling story of the Corvette as a powerful vehicle with a history woven into that of our country.
I also appreciated the chance to see such a wide variety of quality Chevrolet Corvette photos, most in full color.
Finally, I enjoyed the creative ways in which Burton labeled the eras of the Chevrolet Corvette: the curvaceous years; the sting ray years; the shark era; the triumph of technology; the bold new architecture; and supercar status.
This book is SO COOL!!! February 6, 2007
Just seeing the cover is...ahem...enough to get your engine running!! We bought this book for my brother for his 50th birthday. He taught his kids the Corvette Pledge of Allegiance when they were little, so you have some idea of how much he loves them. He said this book is really cool--and has a LOT of very good photography. A fitting tribute to a devotee!
