Triumph Cars in America
written by Michael Cook, 192 pages with 250 b/w illustrations, 273 x 210 mm, Paperback, English
As with most post-war British sports cars, a large portion of the Triumphs produced in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s were exported to the United States. As a result, the demands of U.S. customers essentially defined what a Triumph sports car would be. This automotive history tells the colourful tale of Triumphs successes in the United States, how the brand was established, its dealer network, promotional and marketing efforts, racing ventures that starred legendary drivers like Stirling Moss and Bob Tulius, profiles of U.S.-exclusive models, and, finally, Triumphs sad defeat under the umbrella of British Leyland. A huge collection of black-and-white photography, much of it archival and not seen in print for decades, imparts a sense of this British marques jolly good run in the United States.
