Sports cars were still a rare breed in America in the days just prior to the Corvette's birth in 1953.

Though almost eliminated in the early days, the Corvette has strongly endured, over four decades after its humble birth, as America's Sports Car.

Corvette chronicles the history of the Corvette, from the earliest first generation solid-axle Corvettes, to the latest fifth-generation C5.

The book highlights dream and show cars, racers, Zora Akus-Duntov prototypes and one-offs, and other Corvettes, such as the Sting Ray, that played a significant role in the car's famous history.

Featured are first-hand accounts by major figures in the development of the Corvette, including Robert Cumberford and Larry Shinoda, as well as previous interviews with the famous, late Zora Arkus-Duntov.

A full color gallery of new photography by Randy Leffingwell and David Newhardt highlight the book, along with rare, archival black and white photos featuring period racing, advertisements, and magazine covers.
