Prolific US author, Leffingwell, chimes in with yet another weight tome — this time celebrating 60 years of famed German marque, Porsche. It may have a distinctly American bias, but everything is covered within these pages — from the early Gmünd coupes right out to that thoroughly modern monstrosity, the Cayenne. I especially enjoyed the earlier chapters of the book, which is superbly illustrated with rarely seen photos depicting early US Porsche racing, but Porsche fans should find enough here to amuse them for hours.

Glossy and well produced, this profusely illustrated book may not add much fresh information to the Porsche legend, but it’s a good buy — although you’ll need a very large sock if you choose these as a Christmas stocking-stuffer.
