Michael Frostick
author
Michael Frostick was a British motoring journalist and author. According to the Guild of Motoring Writers, he was a contributor to Wheelbase, a BBC motoring programme that preceded Top Gear, and he served as chair of the Guild in 1981. He wrote many books on motor cars and motoring history, including titles on Jaguar, Mercedes, BMW, Lancia, Bentley, Aston Martin, Alfa Romeo and Ford. He also wrote a multi-volume history of motors and motoring and Pit and Paddock, a background to motor racing. His Jaguar titles include The Jaguar Tradition (Dalton Watson, 1975) and the 1980 Automobilia edition The Complete Book of Jaguar. Some bookseller listings credit this edition to Alfieri and Frostick, and Automobilia was the publisher's imprint. Retailers refer to him as 'the late Michael Frostick', but no authoritative source found gives his birth or death dates or places, or his nationality. Those fields are left empty rather than guessed.[1,2]
