[.ca] Mini Cooper (ISBN 1870979869)

essential coopers:
great boook for anyone interested in the cooper minis, spells out what a cooper is, remember, not every mini is a true cooper!

Quick reference:
This book has just what you need for a person who is constantly on the run. It provides pictures that demonstrate the appeal of the mini's. It provides a short chronological history of the 30+ years reign of the mini's. But, best of all (again for those always on the run) it's short enough to be a quick reference, yet long enough to give its reader a whole rounded experience of the mini's plight.

Another good Mini book:
If you are buying a Mini Cooper, read this book first, read it again, check out the Mini you want to buy and read the book one more time. I bought my Mini first but would have made a different choice if I studied a bit more. This is also a good book for reference for restoration or just facts about the car.I would say this book, along with a few others, is important in ones collection of Mini books.

A Good Bedtime Read:
The Book's title is in fact quite true to its content, in that it only contains the essential facts about the Cooper. The Cooper's development is quite well detailed, and this makes the book ideal for the enthusiast seeking his first book about the Mini Cooper. Mini restorers however, need to go into much greater detail than what this book can ever offer. Pictorially, the book is well-illustrated, though mainly in black and white. There is a slight imbalance towards Austin Cooper models in the pictures, as few Morris Coopers actually feature. However, the book remains a great addition to the shelves of those who want an entertaining read about the Mini Cooper story, in its production and competition guises, and merits a place on the bookshelf, in the company of other books about the Mini.
