This is really a book for anyone that is into cars. The author takes you through a quick history of the beginnings, creation of the mustang and then what led up to the creation of the first generation of the Boss mustang. The first response to Chevy or GMC answer when they introduced the Camaro. The Camaro in 67 and 68 was more powerful than the mustang so there needed to be a response to add to the completion of the car sells. Enter the Boss. What this book shows you are behind the scenes drawings, photos of prototypes and interviews with some of the people that work with the design, engineers, and photos from some of the races that it took place in. First introduced in 69 and 70. It was reintroduced in 2012 and 2013. With the same intent and detail as the original, you also hear from the people who were involved with that as well. Anyone that loves cars or mustangs will like or love this book. Having a 1986 5.0 mustang I found this to be a fascinating read on the history of the car and people behind the car that you don’t always hear about. An excellent book.

A fun, thorough look at the history of Ford's racing car of the late 1960s/early 1970s, the Boss Mustang. Lots of historical photos, insider details, and more. Probably too specific an interest for our mid-sized public library collection, but my Mustang-owning dad may get a copy from me for Father's Day!

If you are a fan of the Ford Mustang Boss models then this is a book for you. Excellent a detailed history of the genesis and racing history of the design. Good balance of detailed text and great pictures.
