Title: Longtime MG/MGB enthusiast.

Review: MGs and early British sports cars were the cars of my youth. At 67 I've owned, driven, maintained and enjoyed a few MGBs. I have also purchased a number of MG books over the years. I especially enjoyed this book because of its more intimate telling of the people behind the cars. If you are a die hard MG enthusiast you will appreciate this book.

Review: Gives accounts of events and how people reacted in the family of MG workers. Not really a history of the car and it's evolution.

Review: Very fragmented and repetitive writing style. At times unstructured. Insufficient background information for a newby to the subject matter.
