The Legendary 2.3
(Page 5 of 6)

From Jonathan Stein, writing in Autoweek
“Author Simon Moore may call this book about Alfa Romeo’s 8C2300 series The Legendary 2.3, but this magnificent book deserves legendary status in it own right…Standards in research, design, photo reproduction and printing have risen a great deal…. and no pairing has taken those standards higher than author Moore and publisher/editor Malcolm Harris…. Hundreds of people and thousands of hours obviously went into tracking down the history of every one of the 188 cars built. ….For the time being, The Legendary 2.3 must rank as the finest new edition of automotive history, combining superlative research and magnificent photography as well as excellent and straightforward design in a superior package.”

Bill Clark in Beaded Wheels (New Zealand)
".... to ... true Alfa Romeo connisseurs and those who collect the very best of genuine motoring history, this must claim a place on your bookshelves."

David Seibert in Prancing Horse (the magazine of the Ferrari Club of America)
"..... or you simply appreciate the ultimate example of automotive research and scholarship, you must buy this book. It's better than you could possibly imagine."

Greg Stewart in The Alfa Romeo Club of Canada Newsletter
"I have no doubt that The Legendary 2.3 will become a benchmark for future automotive books. It seems quite appropriate, given that the 8C2300s did the very same thing to the automotive industry!"

Jonathan Thompson in Road & Track
"Simon Moore has done it again. ..... Although I have studied Alfa Romeo for many years and have written magazine articles on the 8C/12C Grand Prix cars and the 8C2900B sports cars...., I am in awe of the depth to which Moore has dug in unearthing so much new material and solving so many nagging mysteries. In addition to every 8C2300 I ever thought I knew something about, there is page after page of complete surprises. Exotic variations are presented in rich detail: racing cars, open sports cars and closed Gran Turismo cars. This is an absolute model of research, writing and presentation by the author and Malcolm Harris, the editor/publisher."
