This is a uniquely lavish but well-informed photo-book crammed with unusual Land Rover aspects and moments. The astonishing lifespan of the much-loved traditional Land Rover runs from 1948 to 2016, running through Series I, Series II, Series III and 90/110 to the final Defenders. A new Defender, to be launched in 2020, represents the first of a brand-new generation. This original pictorial history from successful motoring writer and journalist Giles Chapman presents a carefully compiled selection of photographs – many rarely seen – with concise and considered commentary on the 'proper' Land Rovers. With arresting imagery that pays homage to the Land Rover's tenacious ability, rugged engineering and place in our world, the fresh, stylish and beautiful design acts as a backdrop to the life of these legendary vehicles.
