Description: This concise but highly informative history of Rolls-Royce and Bentley concentrates mainly on the post World War II years when the cars have been built at Crewe. The earlier history is told briefly, but there is a great deal of detail about the later years and a clear description of the deals that saw Volkswagen buy the company but lose the Rolls-Royce name to BMW. It is a fascinating story and leaves the reader wondering where the two marques, separated for the first time since 1931, will go in the future.
