5.0 out of 5 stars The best Mini book I've ever read, 5 Aug 2009

R. Lightbody "roblightbody" (Glasgow, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Mini: The Definitive History (Hardcover)

I've been obsessed with the Mini for over 20 years and have read many, many Mini books.

This, however, is easily the best. Well written, fascinating, without getting bogged down in the wrong sort of detail. Facts ands stories that I've never heard elsewhere. This is one that you must have on your bookshelf, and you must read this year, of the Mini's 50th anniversary.
