Forged in the austerity of post-war Britain and first sketched on a Welsh beach, the Land Rover became far more than a utility vehicle. It grew into a cultural artefact, a British engineering marvel as at home on Highland estates as in war zones or urban high streets. Land Rover: From Military Roots to British Icon is the definitive narrative history of a vehicle that traversed continents and social classes-from Series I to Defender, from the Camel Trophy to Kensington. Spanning 1948 to 2025, this meticulously researched book follows Land Rover's transformation from farm tool to fashion symbol...
Forged in the austerity of post-war Britain and first sketched on a Welsh beach, the Land Rover became far more than a utility vehicle. It grew into a cultural artefact, a British engineering marvel as at home on Highland estates as in war zones or urban high streets. Land Rover: From Military Roots to British Icon is the definitive narrative history of a vehicle that traversed continents and social classes-from Series I to Defender, from the Camel Trophy to Kensington. Spanning 1948 to 2025, this meticulously researched book follows Land Rover's transformation from farm tool to fashion symbol. It explores the brand's iconic models, the expeditions and military campaigns they powered, and the global following that grew around their rugged charm. Through Royal patronage, industrial turmoil, design revolutions, and global reinvention, Land Rover has remained a uniquely British emblem of adventure, durability, and class. With thirty chapters and richly detailed appendices, this is the story of a machine that changed the way Britain moved-and how the world saw Britain move.
