Famed automotive photographer Henry Rasmussen has trained his camera on beautifully restored Peterbilts, fancy show trucks, and big rigs at work. The legend of Peterbilt is featured in a photographic essay of more than 80 color images and a gallery of nostalgic black-and-white photographs, showing early Fageol trucks, one of the oldest surviving original Peterbilts of 1939, and a host of other trucks built through 1988. Included is a list of production figures and model designations for all Peterbilts 1939-1988.

Peterbilt: The Class of the Industry

The 1960s witnessed a procession of powerful American automobiles that became all but extinct with the advent of stringent safety and emissions laws in the 1970s. This colorful reprint of Decade of Muscle examines all the landmark models produced by Chrysler, Ford, GM and AMC during that period.

Mighty Muscle Cars

Mack, the world's notable brand of semi-truck, and its bulldog symbol have been renowned for power, durability, and ingenuity since 1900. Mack was the first company to engineer a cab-over design, and built the first hook-and-ladder fire truck. As a testament to the popularity of the truck, vintage models are actively collected and restored by a serious enthusiast following. Henry Rasmussen captures the beauty and power of Mack trucks in his lens, featuring both perfectly restored and original examples to chronicle the development of the company's big rigs from 1900 to the present. Included are photos of the third oldest AC truck in existence.

Mack Trucks

Peterbilt bears a pedigree as long as the roads the trucks travel. The legend traces back to the 1915 Fageol truck line with the first hauler to wear the Peterbilt badge rolling onto the scene in 1939. Classic Peterbilt chronicles the men and machines behind the legend, the evolution of the badge, and the advances in the aerodynamics of these mammoth machines.
