About the Author
Randy Leffingwell wrote his first book, American Muscle, while still on staff at the Los Angeles Times. The book examined Times’ publisher Otis Chandler’s growing collection of muscle cars. American Muscle published in September 1990, jump-started a love of book creation that ultimately led Leffingwell to leave the Times in 1995. By then, he and Motorbooks had published Porsche Legends, and six other books.
Since 1990, Leffingwell has authored more than 60 titles, most of them automotive-oriented. Over 30-plus years, these include a dozen Porsche titles ranging from general overviews—Porsche 75 Years: Expect the Unexpected, and The Complete Book of Porsche 911—to deeper explorations in Porsche Turbo and Porsche 911: 50 Years. During this time, he has regularly traveled to Germany to continue his research regarding Porsche’s history. To date, Leffingwell has interviewed more than 200 Porsche engineers, stylists, model makers, racers, and managers.
While he has tackled other subjects including John Deere tractors, Harley-Davidson motorcycles, and West Coast lighthouses, Leffingwell admits he is almost addicted to the Porsche story. In addition to his book work, he is historical editor for 000 magazine and PorschePanorama. And for the past decade he has been researching and writing an encyclopedic history of Porsche’s motorsports endeavors.
Leffingwell lives near Santa Barbara, California.

Love this book, it does a job of explaining how Porsche was developed over its 50 years of existence. I think it does great justice to a car with great lineage .

4.0 out of 5 stars This is an informative and entertaining read!
This volume might be my favorite Porsche book. Although there are numerous opportunities for improved cohesiveness, it is still an excellent-quality coffee table book with great pictures and an enjoyable narrative.

Déçu
Plutôt déçu par ce livre : des descriptions longues et sans intérêt (exemple Porsche 956 : énumération sans fin des résultats des courses sur 2 ou 3 pages !) s'apparentant à du remplissage, pages écrites en gros caractère (remplissage aussi), faits sans importance rapportés etc. Randy Leffingwell ne sait plus trop quoi raconter dans ses livres pour les meubler. Heureusement qu'il ne coûte que 50 € sinon je l'aurais renvoyé.
Awesome book
The book arrived safely. Never had suck a quality book as this. LoveThanks Bolo
