Porsche Literature

[Decoy]

Hi All,

As Xmas is approaching and I'm putting together an Amazon wish list I thought it would be nice to add some books on Porsche history, racing etc so thought I'd ask if anyone knows any particularly good reads?

Paul Frere's "911 Story".
Karl Ludvigsen's "Excellence Was Expected".
Marc Bongers' "Porsche Data Book".
Sadly I've been disappointed by the Adrian Streather books - close but not quite there. Too many errors and inaccuracies

Origen Of The Species is another cracker
