This book is a very useful overview of the more popular Jaguars. I think Michael Cook does an excellent job, within the scope of the book. Good coverage of the E-type, XK's, and sedans. A great book for readers who are new to the marque. If you are already a Jaguar expert, you won't learn much here. Also, if you already have selected one particular model to buy (say, and XK 120 OTS) then there are more specialized books for you. But if you're looking for an overall introduction to the marque, and some basic advice on model selection and what to look for -- this book hits the mark, especialy considering the price. Great value!
