Overview

From its groundbreaking 1953 fiberglass debut to the audacious mid-engine supercars of the 21st century, the Chevrolet Corvette has been more than just America's sports car-it has been a symbol of innovation, resilience, and cultural identity. Corvette: Red, White, and V8 chronicles this legendary machine's full journey across seventy-plus years of design breakthroughs, engineering revolutions, racing triumphs, and passionate ownership. With meticulous research and a vivid narrative style, the book traces every generation of Corvette, from Harley Earl's original vision through Zora Arkus-Duntov's performance blueprint, the technological leaps of the C4 and C5 eras, and the high-octane, flat-plane fury of today's C8 Z06. Along the way, it explores the brand's endurance at Le Mans, the rise of Corvette clubs worldwide, and the collector fever that has made certain models multimillion-dollar icons. Drawing on factory records, race results, and engineering archives, this is the definitive, fact-driven account of how one car captured the American imagination, adapted to every challenge, and remains poised to thrive in an electrified future.
