As regards automobile works of reference, those which appeared about the time of the passing of the Act of 1896 are now of no practical value, while several years elapsed before any attempt was made, in Great Britain at least, to replace them.

The most important book is 'Motor Vehicles and Motors,' by W. Worby Beaumont, published in 1900 by Archibald Constable & Co., London. The price is two guineas. It is a portly volume of 636 quarto pages, with about 250 illustrations, many of which are of an elaborate nature. The technical value of this work, more especially to the designer, is very great, and the volume is a monument alike to the importance of the industry and to the ability and industry of its author.

Of other works which possess any current value the following may be named:—

'Light Motor-Cars and Voiturettes,' by John Henry Knight, London, Iliffe & Sons, Ltd., 1902; 2s. 6d.
