Book Synopsis

Revealing a legacy of speed and innovation over more than seventy years of continuous production, the Corvette has evolved from its 1953 sporty-car debut to today's world-class supercar. Its fascinating development story and stellar competition record across eight distinct generations are detailed in The Complete Book of Corvette, spanning:

• The 1953 debut model
• The all-conquering L88 of the 1960s

• The innovative E-Ray hybrid
• The 70th anniversary edition
• The 1,064-horsepower, mid-engine Stingray ZR-1

Chevrolet's Corvette has consistently set the standard for American high performance and ingenuity, and The Complete Book of Corvette is the ultimate reference to that storied history.
