The book, MG, chronicles the MG from its inception in 1924 to its effective demise with British-Leyland's sale of the MG factory at Abingdon in 1981.  The first MGs were light weight sports cars like the MG Super Sports Morris which was capable of reaching 60 m.p.h..  Throughout the early 1930s the MGs were successful in races , rallies and speed trials with the K and J types reaching speeds over 120 m.p.h..  MGs involvement in racing waned in the late 1930s mainly as a result of the company being sold to Morris Motors, LTD.  While Morris Motors did not actively support MGs being used in the various racing circuits, many MGs were still entered in local races.  MG did produce, however, road-going sports cars such as the Magnette, TA and TB during this period.  After World War II MG produced the TC followed by the TD.  These "classic" sports cars became the instant favorites of young drivers and enjoyed great success in the export market to the United States.  While a new Magnette was subsequently launched, it was nothing more than a Austin-powered Wolsey with an MG grille.  Later the MGA came onto the market in the mid 1950s followed by MGB launched in 1962.  The MGB with some modifications remained in production until 1980 when the dire financial straights of the parent company forced the closure and sale the Abingdon factory.  In addition to providing an informative narrative, "MG" includes the following features: 1) 5 black and white photographs and 2) 118 contemporary color photographs.  This book is 96 pages and is in excellent condition.  The author is Richard Aspden with Nicky Wright (photography).  Edition published in 1983.
