OPIS
This volume traces through more than 150 years of Italian automotive history. A history made, above all, by men who have put creativity, hard work, inspiration, ingenuity, and tenacity to use in developing their ideas and in giving form to this revolutionary instrument of human mobility, a symbol of liberty that even today represents a factor of the progress and wealth of a country. The evolution of this means of transport can be divided into multiple stages: from the first internal combustion engine to Carlo Menon's diminutive Rebus of the late 1800s; from the first races to the World War I period, on to the fantastic 1920s, when Italy was realizing four-wheeled masterpieces that were envied and demanded all around the world.
