The Jeep is an American automotive legend. In six decades it has evolved from the humblest of beginnings as a mechanical mule into a must-have vehicle that is the byword for four-wheel-drive luxury. Developed for use by the Allied armies in the Second World War, it has today achieved cult status, with booming sales in the US and Europe, and a strong enthusiast following. This informative book includes a marque history, driving impressions, technical specifications and buying tips.
