"If ever an object merited being called iconic, it's the Stanley Steamer. This automobile has transcended automobile history to become part of the social fabric of American history itself. Compiling the definitive history of the Stanley was a daunting task, probably the reason no one took it on prior to this. . . The Stanley Museum was a natural. The result is an incredibly important book in the chronicling of automobile history. Its publication is cause for rejoicing."

—Beverly Rae Kimes, author of the Standard Catalog of American Cars, 1805-1942 and other automotive histories; Past President, Society of Automotive Historians


Here are some comments we've been hearing about this book:

"It's stunning! What an important book for SMI (Stanley Museum, Inc.) to have published."
—Sarah Stanley, great-granddaughter of F.E. Stanley


"A good read!" — Jay Leno


"I was expecting a great book, but this is beyond even high expectations."
— Leroy Cole, Board Member, Society of Automotive Historians


"Better than I thought it could be."
— Pat Farrell, Stanley Museum member and content reviewer.


"It is and will be 'the source' for information about the Stanley automobile."
— Bruce Toner, Stanley Museum member


"What a great final product you turned out in the new Stanley book!"
— Thomas C. Marshall, Stanley Museum member and content reviewer


"I have read it all more than once and consider it to be a model for anyone undertaking
the history of a make of car, and probably unmatched in this
respect by any previously published volume."
— Fred Roe, Member, Society of Automotive Historians
