Every year a slew of new Porsche-themed books are published — no surprise considering the name is almost a license to print money, so prestigious and admired are the small German automaker’s road andis no typical coffee table paperweight. The author of this retrospective — noted marque historian and photographer Randy Leffingwell — brings expertise to its 256 pages, and the forward by racer and Porsche ambassador Hurley Haywood sets the tone for the dust-jacketed hardcover, since most of its 30 chapters highlight the company’s motorsports efforts that ultimately translated into its production cars.
