Recensione:
Muscle Car Review, January 2009
Shelby s story is oft-told, but this book brings together all of his vehicular projects from the first Cobra (photographed before he had decided ton the name Cobra ) to his latest hot Mustangs with all the highs and lows in between. Author Comer delivers an amazing amount of history in a very readable fashion, and the old-time and contemporary photographs are reproduced beautifully.

The Shelby American (Shelby American Automobile Club), Fall 2009
When you see a book described on its cover as being complete, your eyebrow automatically goes up. This is especially true when that adjective is describing a book on Shelby cars. There are so many examples, permutations and exceptions swirling around in the Cobra/Shelby universe that it s almost a slam-dunk to imagine that something was overlooked. This is clearly not the case with SAAC member Colin Comer s latest book. He tells the story and he gets it just right; he doesn t gloss over the important stuff and it s not a puff piece or an homage to Carroll Shelby. The glossy pages of this book have a very high quality feel to them. The reproduction of the photos are second to none and the color values are perfect. You will not be disappointed with this book.

Examiner.com, October 15, 2009  
"The Complete Book of Shelby is just that - a complete listing of Shelby automobiles. And while the story of Carroll Shelby the man has been told over and over, finally, Comer has given Shelby enthusiasts what they want. Something fresh and new that talks less about the man and more about the cars. Pairing Comer's unique, entertaining writing style with never before seen archival photographs and current pictures, The Complete Book of Shelby is in a class all by itself.

Colin Comer's The Complete Book of Shelby Automobiles covers all the bases, and we mean all of them. Even the guy who "knows" about Shelby cars will be educated by reading this book. No matter what you think of Carroll Shelby, his story is uniquely American and pretty inspiring. He's a marketer par excellence and has played to his strengths through his long career with cars. This book educated us, awed us with photos, and earned our respect with an balanced look at the long and storied history of the vaunted Shelby name.



Colin Comer may have been born to do this book...a beautiful book on every level... this book has it all lovely writing in a tone of a friend over a pint telling you stories about cars that got away, handsome photographs, important photographs, plenty of inside information and insights, all bound up in a package as elegant and purposeful as the Cobra itself. Bravo. Sports Car Market, February 2010
