I received Martin Bobbitt's book on the Citroen 2CV today. Over the years I have tended to read a lot of such books. In the past year or so I've read Eric Dymock's book on Rover, a book on the history of Tatra and Hans Ledwinka and also a book on the development and history of the Zetor tractors (Czech tractor manufacturer).
I have interests in both history and engineering and do enjoy reading about the people who designed these things and the circumstances into which they were developed. I keep meaning to find a biography of Henry Ford.
Does anyone else read books like this and anyone got any particular recommendations?
