A comment on this book from the Amazon listing: "An excellent book that tells a very interesting story of a great car and a great tradition. It is especially wonderful because my father, Jimmie L. Snelson is on the cover, at the beginning of Chapter 2 and page 39. My father was in the first group sent to Detroit to learn how to build the 1953 Corvette and then took that knowledge back to St. Louis where they moved the assembly of the Corvette until they moved the plant to Bowling Green, KY. I worked in the plant a short time in St. Louis and then spent the remainder of my 5 1/2 years in the Chevrolet truck plant or the car plant. My younger brother Keith retired from the Bowling Green plant in 2006." B59
