Description:
The Thousand Mile Trial of 1900 marked the first proof to the British public that the motor car was to be taken seriously. This book tells the story and its publication marks the centenary of that great event. Written by Elizabeth Bennett, editor of the Veteran Car Club of Great Britain magazine "Veteran Car" and the club`s official photographer, this book tells the story using contemporary reports and photographs, many previously unpublished. A great story of the conception, planning and execution of an event that many said was not possible.
