I was mostly drawn to the book for the pictures and would have been content with just a brief history. Instead, I got a more in depth history as well as a book length love letter to the car. And I enjoyed the vast majority of it. There were one or two throwaway comments Cole made that rubbed me the wrong way, I suspect we don't see many ideological things eye-to-eye, but they did not detract from the rest of the book, I can ignore ignorance in some areas when it is overshadowed by knowledge in another, and Cole knows his Saab.
This is definitely one that any Saab enthusiast will want, as well as most car lovers who lament the passing of brands into the past. Both an enjoyable read and an attractive book.
