Citroen stunned the automotive world when the DS series was introduced in 1955. Daringly futuristic and amazingly sophisticated mechanically, it made most cars on the road at the time obsolete. John Pressnell recounts the full story of the design, development, and production of these unique cars, and offers specifications plus a wide selection of archive and contemporary photos.

Citroen's Traction Avant was the world's most advanced family car at its launch in 1934, and in the course of its 23-year life it became a national emblem for the French. Not only did it popularize front-wheel drive and chassis-less monocoque construction, but it also combined for the first time on one car such modern features as an overhead-valve engine, all-round torsion-bar suspension, hydraulic brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. At the same time it can lay claim to being one of the most beautiful motor cars ever produced, its graceful lines being the work of talented artist and sculptor Flaminio Bertoni. Lavishly illustrated and clearly presented, this book is the indispensable companion for all fans of this most legendary of motor cars.
