Numerous books on automobiles and racing penned by Lehbrink testify to the long-term impact of these early experiences. How do you get from German and English philology to automotive journalism?

Numerous books on automobiles and racing penned by Lehbrink testify to the long-term impact of these early experiences. Whether or not this is the source of his ongoing affinity to anything that has four wheels, his fascination with cars is vividly expressed in his photographs. About the Author There is a persistent rumour that Rainer Schlegelmilch's birth was initiated on the back seat of a Mercedes Benz 170V. . How do you get from German and English philology to automotive journalism? Chalk it up to car racing: the appearance of the Silver Arrows (Silberpfeile) in Spa, Zandvoort and at the Nurburgring, says the Germanist and Anglicist Hartmut Lehbrink
Morgan Driver This book would be a great addition to the bookshelf of any British sports cars enthusiast. It covers all the British marques in great detail and is full of excellent color photography. I have other books which I paid more for and are not of this quality.Highly recommended.. The Best So Far I have a good collection of books on British and Sports Cars. This is the best I've seen so far. It has very wide coverage of marques, and includes cars from before the 50s (a failing of some). Even obscure marques like Elva and Fraser-Nash are covered. Good information on significant models, and excellent pictures.
The spirit of the British sports car tradition is reflected in the aesthetics of Schlegelmilch's photography and in Lehbrink's knowledgeable text.
