Description
Traction for Sale: The Story of Ferguson Formula Four-wheel DriveUntil the 1970s, four wheel drive was almost exclusively found on utility vehicles like the Land Rover and the Jeep. And almost nobody considered four wheel drive, especially full time four wheel drive as a major safety feature to be built into any type of car. That is, unless you were tractor millionaire Harry Ferguson or former racing driver Tony Rolt. Ferguson shared the dream of Rolt and his original business partner, fellow racing driver Freddie
Until the 1970s, four-wheel drive was almost exclusively found on utility vehicles like the Land Rover and the Jeep. And almost nobody considered four-wheel drive, especially full-time four-wheel drive as a major safety feature to be built into any type of car. That is, unless you were tractor millionaire Harry Ferguson or former racing driver Tony Rolt. Ferguson shared the dream of Rolt and his original business partner, fellow racing driver Freddie Dixon by investing in their fledgling company, and giving it his name. The Ferguson Formula, as the product of Harry Ferguson Research Ltd eventually became known, incorporated full-time four-wheel drive, anti-skid braking and a fully automatic transmission. Starting in the days before Harry Ferguson became involved, to 1994, when Ricardo acquired the successor company, FF Developments Ltd, Traction for Sale tells the story of the companiesand the people behind them and covers all the well-known vehicles in the Ferguson Formula saga, including the Jensen FF; the Ferguson-Climax F1; the Ferguson-Novi, Paxton Turbine and Lotus 56 Indianapolis racing cars; the Lancia Delta, Peugeot 205 T16, Metro 6R4, Ford RS200 and Escort Cosworth rally cars; the AMC Eagle and the Schuler and Overfinch Range Rovers. And it covers those models less well known for FFD technology, such as the Chevrolet Safari 4x4, VW Golf Synchro, Ford Scorpio and Sapphire 4x4 and the Jaguar X-Type as well as those for which FFD supplied essential transmission components, such as the McLaren F1 and Jaguar XJ220Binding Type: Hardcover

Beautiful and high quality book, highly recommended for Ghost fans
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I pre ordered this the day they went live, knowing I would not be disappointing. I wasn't. The slipcase that comes with it is sturdy and protects the book well. The book itself is quality and has a great spine that lets you set the book down, and will keep the page open without you needing to hold it, which is a common issue with books. The art itself is gorgeous, sometimes spanning pages. There is commentary and notes from 2 great people from SUcker Punch Productions: Jason Connell and Andrew Goldfarb, providing insight in to the development process of Ghost of Tsushima. Much to my surprise, there is even a whole chapter dedicated to the upcoming co-op expansion to the game, Ghost of Tsushima: Legends. I am supremely happy with my purchase.

Great quality
Format: Hardcover
Not sure why the one guy had to compared this book the the MGSV one. But it is a great quality art book. Yes the paper is not glossy but it actually makes it more viewable in all conditions in my opinion. Paper very much reminded me of what high quality Japanese art is usually printed on. Love that the book comes with details on what they were thinking while designing everything. Great game worth the buy now before this thing becomes rare and hard to get!

Great Book, delivery could be improved.
Format: Hardcover
Overall, a great gift for a lover of this game. The content is beautiful. The only thing that was frustrating was our first order of the book was damaged, we had to get it replaced.

Gorgeous artwork in a beautifully bound book
Format: Hardcover
This was such a wonderful surprise! I cannot believe how beautifully bound this is, and the slipcase feels expensive too! It's a steal at this price point. The images are printed so nicely too, a lot of love went into this.
