James Taylor is that rare creature: a meticulous but always very readable historian. Combine his expertise with publisher Herridge & Son’s high production values and you have an attractive, colourful hardback that dives deep into areas most Austin Seven books gloss over. After the expected production history, more than half the book is dedicated to all the different coachbuilt and foreign licensed versions of the Seven – and there were lots of both. A lovely book, packed with interest.
