Description

La Lancia
By Wim Oude Weernink

“La Lancia” is the most authoritative book on the Italian marque, covering the first 100 years of Lancia history.

It tells the story of Vincenzo Lancia and his successors, and their goals and achievements. This ground-breaking marque brought us milestones such as the the Lambda, Astura, Aprilia, Aurelia, Fulvia, Delta and so many other illustrious model-ranges. Particular attention is devoted to the sporting successes with the sports-racers and the D50 Formula 1 in the fifties up to the fantastic Stratos and Delta Integrale. A unique appendix with detailed technical data and production statistics are also part of the content of La Lancia.

A rich selection of illustrations and first-hand information in an easily readable format make this book a “must have” for the true Lancia connoisseur. Without doubt, La Lancia remains the standard reference on one of the most respected and influential manufacturers in motoring history.
