Strive for perfection in everything you do. Take the best that exists and make it better. When it does not exist, design it. Sir Henry Royce's philosophy has ensured that Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has remained foremost in its field for more than 100 years, with cars that continue to win both numerous industry accolades and the enduring admiration of its owners. This volume captures the unique history of the most famous automotive company in the world, looking back at a century of timeless car design. Lavishly illustrated, with exciting new photographs of the luxurious interiors, the book celebrates the illustrious style of this world-renowned brand by showing the most important Rolls-Royce models ever made: from the Silver Ghost to the latest Phantom and Ghost, all built at the home of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars at Goodwood, Southern England. The book offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the meticulous design, engineering and craftsmanship employed in the construction of every car that leaves Goodwood.
