Seven decades of Porsche engineering, design, and competition

Randy Leffingwell traces Porsche’s development from the early 356 through the 918, using milestone models to frame the company’s broader history. The book examines engineering and design stories behind cars including the 911, 904, 917, 928, 935, and 956, while also addressing pivotal events and figures connected to the marque. Contemporary photography and historical images make the volume as much a visual record as a reference-oriented history. Produced with Porsche’s cooperation, it brings road cars and racing machines into the same chronological portrait of the Stuttgart manufacturer.
