Throughout the history of the sports car, no marque has epitomized the excitement and passion of driving like Porsche. The Saratoga Automobile Museum, in collaboration with architect Steven Harris, presents 22 of the marque’s rarest air and water-cooled cars. This remarkable collection highlights the manufacturer’s past seven decades of production--from 356 Carreras and Speedsters, to high-performance RS 911s--all captured in sensational detail by James Lipman, a photographer favored by both manufacturers and various popular publications such as Car and Driver, Motor Trend, and Top Gear. (The 2010 Peking to Paris Rally photos were taken by Gerard Brown.) The stunning imagery is accompanied by specifications and history, as well as driving impressions from leading automotive writers Jethro Bovingdon, Andrew English, Andrew Frankel, Richard Meaden, and John Simister. Air & Water combines breathtaking imagery and words to transport the reader on a thrilling journey of being behind the wheel of these ultra-rare machines.
