British Family Cars of the 1950s and 60s (Shire Library)by Anthony Pritchard
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:With the end of the Second World War, it was not long before increasing wealth, cheaper cars, and social pressures made a family car the aspiration of thousands. Ford, Hillman, Standard, Morris and Vauxhall became household names, and the streets of Britain's suburbs began to fill with modern-looking saloon cars, designed to transport mother, father and 2.4 children with ease, if not speed.
This illustrated book looks at the British cars that were available to the post-war family, and also some of the foreign makes that had an important place in the market, and which had a great influence on the British-made cars that followed. About the AuthorAnthony Pritchard, a lawyer by profession, is the author of dozens of books on motoring and motor sport, including respected sporting histories of Alfa Romeo and Aston Martin.
