    That's one of the few Hudson books I don't have on my shelf. I didn't realize it was Mr. Foster's last book on Orphan Cars.

    A lot of the information in that article is not correct. That was probally written by the newspaper, not Pat Foster, as he is right on in his information. He is Still writing for "Hemmings Classic Car",as he has a nice article in the last issue.

    And when's the last time you saw a newspaper get something right - or even the TV newscasters???? Huh????

  • I got this book from Amazon a while back. Its an ok book. If its the only book on Hudsons you have it would be fine. If you have all the other books this one reads like someone who has read all the other books and decided to write a book on Hudsons as well.

    No new info or even a better presentation of the history. I got it because its Hudson. Langworths book is far better IMHO.

    Got the book for Christmas and it's already finished. Loved it and I liked the pictures too. But I will check that Langworths book too. Thanks for the info 51 hornetA. Michel.
