I had to read this book for my senior project this year. It was my best source for the history section. Too bad the book dosn't go farther than the sixties.

Required reading for every VW fan.Review date: 1998-09-27 Rating: 10 out of 10I first read this book when I was 10 years old, and ever since it has amazed me how well written, interesting and researched was the original text. It's a shame that the story ends on the late 1960s, and considering that here in Mexico the little Beetle is still one of the best suited cars for the country, perhaps would be nice to have a second edition telling how it has made it to survive until the 1990s, becoming the "Car of the Century" and being registered on the Guiness Records with over 21 million cars produced on the last 60 years.Only a car with such character could have this amazing storyReview date: 1998-08-04 Rating: 10 out of 10I was given a copy of this book back in 1971 when I aquired my first car, a 1959 Bug. This book helped cement a lifelong love of the Volkswagen Beetle. The author did such an outstanding job turning an industrial wonder into a love story. This book should be included in the glovebox of EVERY new VW and is a must for any Volkswagen lover.The REAL story of the original "beetle"......Review date: 1998-07-26 Rating: 10 out of 10When this book was first published in the 1960's the VW revolution was just just hitting it's stride in the US. It's only right that this, the best of the "VW Story" books should be reprinted as the New Beetle puts VW back on the map!A Must Read for Any Auto EnthusiastReview date: 1998-06-28 Rating: 10 out of 10I first read this book in 1979 when I borrowed it from the Public Library. I'm glad to see it being reprinted, although I'd rather see it in hardback. This the really story about Herbie, the little car that could.
