The product of more than 7 years of research, Lancia and De Virgilio, At the Center, was released by David Bull Publishing in 2014, and has since sold out.With over 300 pages of original material on the history of the Lancia company, the family and the development of the Aurelia, the book was awarded several prizes, including the Cunot Award from the Society of Automotive Historians as best book of the year in English.
De Virgilio and the V6 were also the subject of an article in the New York Times, attached below. This is rather significant showing good research into design and engineering is of interest to a wider audience: consider that this article in a leading publication was about a modest engineer in a firm far away some 70 years earlier. The story was also picked up by La Stampa and Republicca. More information is available at: publisher's site and at reviews |
