A Not So Complete History June 4, 2002 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
This book does cover the history from the start, but it lacks the details to call itself "The Complete Story". I don't know if it's been updated (I believe mine is a first printing) but it only covers to the mid 90'sFalls short of being a good coffee table book due to size (small) and limited amount of photos. And, it falls short of being a good reference book due to limited technical information, organization, and completeness. This book is acceptable overall, but I'd like to find a large format book with color photos of every model, and thorough technical and historical information.
A general history July 3, 2000 g.j. Meeuwissen (the Netherlands) 13 out of 16 found this review helpful
A very nice book about the general history of BMW. Most types are described, without being to technical. There is a tabel with specifications for every model since 1923
