ABOUT
Every MG owner and anyone with a trace of sporting blood in him
who has seen this dashing little British sports car in action will
enjoy reading this account of its exciting history. From 1923 when Old
No.1 rolled from the MG (Morris Garages) works to the present day
with its classy representatives of the MG marque, the story details
the growing pains of the fabled Midgets, Magnas, and Magnettes, and the triumphs of the men who drove them.Mr. Wherry steers through
MG's near half century of trials and tribulations, wins and losses, with
an educated toe on the accelerator, a firm hand at the wheel, and an eye out for the curves ahead. As his passenger, you share the thrill of reading about the striped demon (see cover illustration) known
as The Humbug which smashed speed records time and again, the mighty Midgets that captured the imagina¬tions and hearts of sporting
motorists every-where, and the MG models that were elegance on wheels for
the man who wanted everything.
At the end of each chapter, specifications are given for the models
discussed, and thorough coverage of the marque MG is made complete through
the inclusion of one hundred photographs - some old and rare, some new,
all interesting. This hook introduces you to the inside story of the car
that introduced sports cars to American drivers. You'll find here an explanation
of the often puzzling model designations in the MG line - you'11 appreciate
the integ¬rity of the makers who based their success on a formula calling
for speed with safety plus magnificence you'll become an MG
fan if you are not one already, and if you are a member of that dedicated
clan you'll top off your interest by having on your bookshelf the one book
about the marque MG that tells all from the buff's-eye point-of~view.
