1970 Maximum Muscle explores the factors that would lead to the decline of the most exciting era in the American automotive industry-as well as the resulting arms race among designers who saw their last opportunity to make the ultimate muscle car. As a result, 1970 was the climax of the muscle car era from engineering, styling, and performance standpoints.

Look up to the skies through Bob Riggle's eyes in this wheelstanding, must-have Mopar history book on Hemi Under Glass! While the established stock and modified brackets are long-recognized as the heart and soul of drag racing, it was the wheelstanders that more often than not put butts in the bleachers. In that category, some of the most well-known names included Bill "Maverick" Golden's Little Red Wagon, Bill Shewsberry's L.A. Dartand Chuck Poole's Chuck Wagon. Although, most memorable of all was the Hurst Hemi Under GlassPlymouth Barracuda campaigned by Bob Riggle. Riggle started his career in the early 1960s as a car builder and mechanic for Hurst-Campbell and eventually ascended to pilot the Hemi Under Glass. When he left Hurst in 1969, the Hemi Under Glassfranchise transferred with Riggle. He continued for six more years as the owner/driver of a succession of Hemi Under Glassrenditions. In the 1990s he resurrected the concept of the original car--making four different versions (1966, 1967, 1968, and 1969)--and continued to thrill drag racing fans with his wheelstanding antics. At the time of this writing, Bob's last run with the Hemi Under Glasswas in the summer of 2019. He claims to have retired (he was 83 years old at the time), but he's claimed that before! For all the success he enjoyed over his long and distinguished career, which is believed to be one of the longest in all of motorsports, he's best remembered for a run at Irwindale Raceway in early 2016 with comedian and car buff Jay Leno in the passenger seat in a video that has been viewed more than 10 million times. This is Bob's story, one that Mark Fletcher and Richard Truesdell, co-authors of the 2012 book Hurst Equipped, are honored to share. They say the story was easy to tell--given their unprecedented access not only to Bob but also to his vast archive of photos that reflect his ongoing popularity. Many of the photos in this book are seen in print for the very first time.

George Hurst was a hot rodder at heart, but he was also a visionary, an innovator, a brilliant promoter, and he was particularly skilled at building alliances. Hurst developed and marketed a high-performance line of shifters that led the industry and became the cornerstone of the company. After forming an alliance with Anco Industries, Hurst marketed and sold more than 100 speed parts that included shifters, heads, wheels, and many other parts. Eventually, the Hurst catalog became the source for high-performance parts in the 1960s and 1970s. Jack "Doc" Watson joined Hurst and became a pivotal figure within the company, which led to many performance projects with Pontiac. Over the years, Hurst also partnered with Oldsmobile to build special 442s known as the "Hurst" Olds, with AMC to build the wickedly effective SC Rambler, and with Chrysler to create a number of Super Stock cars as well as the 300H. He also helped build one of the most memorable exhibition cars in drag-racing history, the Hemi Under Glass. No other company or individual had as big of an impact on so many aspects of the automotive industry as George Hurst. His performance parts were some of the best ever, the competition cars won many races, and the muscle cars that bear his name were some of the best of the era. Scores of interviews, in-depth research, and exceptional insight from veteran magazine editor Richard Truesdell and co-author Mark Fletcher have created a great book. In this softcover edition, Hurst Equipped: Revised and Updated Editioncaptures the complete story from the production cars and race cars to the performance parts.

Islands―real, artificial, and metaphoric―have always fascinated people. Buildings near, or even in, water transcend boundaries and merge familiar concrete structures with visions to create symphonies of water, light, and stone. Examples of the mastery of this interplay of elements are provided by Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat museum island, artificial city suburbs such as Crystal Island in Moscow, and even entirely new cities such as Island City in Japan. Apart from such dynamic urban centers, Dubai’s luxury islands or the world’s most expensive hotel, the Burj Al-Arab, are also architectural highlights. Visions of the future by renowned architects such as Jean Nouvel, Frank O. Gehry, Zaha Hadid, and Foster + Partners are also presented. This illustrated work is a fascinating journey through the island worlds of today, tomorrow, and the day after.
