Between them, the triumvirate of Auburn, Cord and Duesenberg produced some of the world's greatest automobiles. During that turbulent era between the two World Wars these three famous marques came together under the auspices of a determined young entrepreneur named Errett Lobban Cord, and it was thanks to his guidance that the cars would eventually achieve almost legendary status. It was E. L. Cord's reputation as a superbly successful salesman that saw him recruited to rescue the ailing Auburn concern in 1924. Today these beautiful and historic machines are a legacy of a truly remarkable period and this book contains a comprehensive appreciation of them. A portfolio of articles drawn from the leading international motoring journals covering Auburn, Cord and Duesenberg automobiles.
