Chris Harvey

author

active 1977–present

Chris Harvey is a British motoring author who wrote a long series of books on sports and classic cars, mainly during the 1970s to 1990s. His subjects include Jaguar, Aston Martin and Lagonda, MG and Porsche 911. For Motor Racing Publications he wrote The Classic Jaguar Saloons (1981, ISBN 0900549599), a 144-page hardback Collector's Guide covering Jaguar and Daimler-derived saloons from 1950 to 1970. His other Jaguar titles include Jaguar E-Type: End of an Era (1977), Jaguars in Competition (1979), Jaguar XJ (Osprey AutoHistory, 1980), Great Marques: Jaguar (1982) and Jaguar Saloons: Grace, Space and Pace (1991). Open Library catalogues about 28 works under this name, though that listing may combine several authors with the same name. A search snippet gave a birth year and birthplace, but I could not tie it to a specific page, so birth and death details are left empty here.[1,2,3]
