As this sumptuously illustrated book attests, BMW's reputation for quality goes back to the earliest vehicle in the early 1930s. Cars like the pre-war 328, the 507 of the mid-1950s, and the M1 of the late 1970s captured many motor racing victories.
More than 60 BMW automobiles are profiled here in brief histories and large colour photos, from the Wartburg Motorwagen to the sporty Z-series roadsters, X-series SUVs, and the 100 series.

Railways arrived only a decade before the camera and have been captured in photographs ever since. Taking from the Getty Images archive, the hundreds of b-w photos here illustrate the story of railroads from the early Victorian days
of broad gauge and top-hat engine funnels to the heyday of steam in the late 19th century and the train in 20th-century wars, to the advent of diesel and electric engines. Images of engines at work, station scenes, rail disasters a.o.
