Up to page 64(of 350),good read,lots of info,a fair bit about vehicles that did not arrive here as well.

As Pickles2 said,lots of good and interesting information on the vehicles,up to the D4 so up to date at the moment.

It was a present,so i did not ask.:angel:

Apparently it was purchased on line,is hard covered,so probably not cheap.

On the back it says 35 pounds RRP

Author is Nick Dimbleby

OK, I am aware of Nick Dimbleby as I am a long time purchaser of Land Rover Monthly Etc. from the UK.

My book cost $52.99 delivered through Angus & Robertson.
It was originally published on the 60th Anniversary, but the version in question is the updated 65th anniversary version. Be careful, because some of the earlier versions are still being listed for sale.
The book has 350 pages.
The best Landrover book I've purchased would definitely be "Landrover Scrapbook" by Mike Gould, purchased though Postscript Books. A BEAUTIFUL publication, quite a large book, I bought the "de-lux" version which comes in a sleeve,...contains a mutitude of early L.R. stuff, adverts, cars, buildings, people, etc etc etc,...I would say it's a MUST for anyone who's interested in Landrover history.
