James L. Taylor
author
James L. Taylor (also credited as James Taylor, and addressed as "Dr. Taylor" in a 1982 Motor Sport review) is a motoring-history author. He has written several dozen books for various publishers, specialising in the post-war British motor industry and particularly Rover products. He is a former editor of Land Rover Enthusiast magazine. His Rover titles include The Post-War Rover: P4 and P5 (P4 Spares; first published 1981, with a 2006 edition of 168 pages) and, for Amberley Publishing, Rover P4, Rover P5 and P5B, Rover R8, and Rover Gas Turbine Cars. His other subjects include the Ford Capri, Ford Escort, Triumph TR7 and TR8, BMW Mini and Land Rover models. No birth or death details, nationality, exhibitions or awards could be verified from the sources consulted, so those fields are left empty. Whether the Amberley author and the P4 Spares author are the same person rests on matching names and subject area, so treat the link as probable and not confirmed.[1,2,3]
