Thoroughly researched and authored by North America’s leading professional vehicle authorities, Carved-Panel Hearses: An Illustrated History 1933-1948 is a fascinating, genuinely exciting product development saga conceived to illuminate a largely undocumented -- and underappreciated – chapter in the annals of the American automobile industry.
