Bugatti passenger cars: books - Ettore and Jean Bugatti

A book on Bugatti passenger cars and racing cars? Here are books on the engineers Ettore Bugatti and his eldest son Jean Bugatti.


Bugatti - The Designer : the inventions, ideas, thoughts & follies of Ettore Bugatti

This book is about Ettore Bugatti's extraordinary mind devoted to a multitude of inventions, designs, modifications, innovations, ideas, hobbies and follies. The object of this publication is an attempt to try and cover a very diverse and wide volume of work in the design field and includes Cars, Railway, Marine, Aircraft and Machine Tools.

Contents include: The Bugatti Heritage 1676-2008; List of inventions, designs, ideas and follies in alphabetical order; Molsheim Electrics; Horses and Carriages; Machine Tool Patents; Aeronautics; Railways; Marine; Automotive.
Appendices: Biography of Giovanni Segantini; Details of the Bugatti Aircraft Assoc.; Details of the Bugatti Trust; Details of the Bugatti Owners Club.

It will be seen that some of the information, photographs and technical drawings are from earlier times and are sometimes not of the reproductive quality we would have liked - many of them taken from newspapers and magazines initially printed on newsprint quality paper and even from carbon copies or photocopies. It is the information and photographs that we believe to be of interest which we feel is reason enough for inclusion in this book.

Bugatti - The Man and the Marque

A rigorously researched and definitive book - the first major re-appraisal of artist engineer Ettore Bugatti and his extraordinary cars to appear since 1963. He built only 7,800 cars between 1910 and 1939, but these are much sought-after today.

This book charts the beginnings of the famous marque, the cars that brought it fame from the exquisite Type 35 to the massive Royale, only six of which were ever built, and chronicles the make's revival which began in Italy in 1988.

Comprehensively illustrated with over 300 photographs, this book is a unique source of reference and winner of the Society of Automotive Historians' Cugnot Award.
