Edition Number 4. Amended 02.04.17. FOREWORD & BIBLOGRAPHY. With such excellent books on M.G. history about, it would be utterly pointless trying to retell it all. If that is what you are after, then obtain 'M.G. by McComb', 'Magic of the Marque', 'McComb, Maintaining the Breed', all by F. Wilson McComb; 'Tuning and Maintenance of MG's' by Phillip H. Smith; 'The Magic of MG' , 'MG, Magic of the Marque' by Mike Allison; and 'MG The Untold Story' by David Knowles. Once you have absorbed these, you are an 'expert'. This book is a collection of information and stories I have collected over about 20 years, with obvious reference to MG history books.
