The Marvelous Mechanical Designs of Harry A. Miller
By Gordon Elliot White
Another in Iconografix’s series of photo compendiums, “The Marvelous Mechanical Designs of Harry A. Miller” explores a broad spectrum of Miller’s innovative designs with the help of photographs from the late Mark Dees collection, blueprints from the late Bob Sutherland Collection and insightful text from Miller expert Gordon Elliot White.
Organized into chapters by project, the 126-page book covers racing cars, racing engines, racing boats, passenger cars, land speed record cars, experiments that failed, Miller-Fords and even the rare mid-engined “Gulf” Millers and the Christie combat car. The reproduction quality of the black-and-white photos is excellent and, when combined with Elliot’s captions and brief chapter introductions, provides interesting insight into a very important piece of American automotive and racing history.
