Book Description
Camaro: Fifty Years of Chevy Performance chronicles the first fifty years of Chevrolet's iconic Camaro through fascinating photography, history, and commentary about this legendary pony car. The early 1960s saw American auto manufacturers desperately trying to sell cars to the emerging baby-boom market. Chevrolet attained some success with its sporty Corvair Monza. Ford responded first with a sportier Falcon, then with its grand-slam, home-run pony car, the Mustang. At first, Chevrolet hesitated to abandon the technologically advanced Corvair, but when it finally entered the pony car market in 1967, its new Camaro instantly became one of the most iconic cars of the classic muscle-car era. When muscle cars went dormant for a generation, it was once again the classic pony cars that jump-started American performance. The battle that raged between Camaro and Mustang in the 1980s rejuvenated the US auto industry's interest in high-performance muscle cars. The Camaro lost its way in the 1990s, with Chevrolet pursuing technological advances and Ford pursuing classic American muscle. As was the case in the 1960s, Ford's muscular pony car trounced Chevrolet's technologically advanced sporty car in the race that mattered most: showroom sales. The Mustang thrived while the Camaro left the scene. Fortunately, that departure was only temporary. Chevrolet introduced a twenty-first-century Camaro in 2010, and it has become one of Chevrolet's most popular models. With stunning photography from author Mike Mueller and never-before-seen archival photography from partner General Motors, Camaro: Fifty Years of Chevy Performance chronicles the Camaro's rich history, from the early attempts to reach the youth market in the 1960s, through the potent and turbulent years of the classic muscle-car era, the resurgence of muscle in the 1980s, the sad decline of the 1990s, and the triumphant rebirth of the new car in this new millennium.

Book Description
"Camaro City - named by car thieves, because the Camaro is popular there - is a Connecticut factory city that has lost its factories. The stories in this collection concern its people, most of whom take whatever work they can find. They are trash inspectors at the landfill, assistant fleet managers at the traprock quarry, owners of construction companies that go bankrupt. The local teenagers also seem to be having a run of bad luck - they can't handle cigarette lighters safely, let alone motorcycles, and they get too many of their cues about life from the aphorisms displayed on the sides of grocery trucks that rumble up and down the interstate behind the high school." ""Never go to bed angry with each other!" one such truck proclaims, but people in Camaro City often do. They also go to bed confused - especially the men, who don't understand why their lives don't seem to fit anymore. (The women are less likely to consider college sissified and are put out of work much less often.) Spirited and stubborn, these people refuse to see themselves as relics of the factory economy. Their more and less fortunate neighbors are also represented here - a girl from the inner city who must choose how to grow up; a young woman of relative privilege who discovers the joy and difficulty of her mother's work. Straightforward, respectful, and beautifully crafted, Sternberg's stories offer a clear window on the life of a small American city late in the twentieth century."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
