The Alfa Romeo Tradition

The Alfa Romeo Tradition presents all of the great Alfa Romeo cars in over 120 colour photographs taken in Italy, America and England, with some rare black and white photographs. Few car marques have survived with the vivid success of Alfa Romeo. From the first Grand Prix model in 1910 to the unbeatable P2 Grand Prix Racer; the indominatable 1750 GS of 1929, post war 159; the 1600 Guila, the 1750 Spyder of 1967, up to the 164, are all mentioned and brief specification details and production figures tabulated. For the first time, it describes the genius behind the cars – the controversy, the intrigue, the enthusiasm and the sheer hard work that gave them life. Author Griff Borgenson brings a special insight to the subject, since he has known many of the Alfa Romeo leaders personally, including the late Vittorio Jano, Enzo Ferrari and Orazio Satta.
