Jaguar - The Last Classic XJ's - James Taylor

When Jaguar’s XJ range arrived in 1968, it quickly established itself not only as a world-beater but also as the central model in the Jaguar range. Riding high throughout the 1970s, it was nevertheless losing some of its appeal by the time Ford bought the Jaguar company at the end of the next decade. These last three generations of the classic Jaguar XJ saloons closed an era in which Jaguar had symbolised the British approach to luxury motoring. That it no longer reflected what many buyers wanted by the end was a sad reflection of the changing times, but cannot take away from the excellence and desirability of the cars themselves. Today increasingly prized by enthusiast owners, these XJs in so many ways show the marque at its peak, and this book highlights why that is so.

SEPECAT Jaguar - James Jackson

The SEPECAT Jaguar was designed to meet the requirements of the Armée de l''Air and the Royal Air Force for a light tactical fighter and a supersonic two-seat training aircraft. First flown in September 1968, the Jaguar went on to serve in both air forces for forty years. Jaguars were exported and licence-built in India, where they remain in frontline service today. Jaguars have also been acquired by the air forces of Ecuador, Oman and Nigeria.Best remembered today as a Cold War attack aircraft, the Jaguar offered a potent mix of high speed at low altitude, excellent navigational and weapons accuracy and a diverse payload of air-to-ground ordnance including tactical nuclear weapons and laser-guided bombs and missiles. While the Jaguars of the RAF based in West Germany helped to deter the Warsaw Pact during the 1970s and 1980s, the Armée de l''Air used their Jaguars in combat in Mauritania and Chad in West Africa. Both air forces participated in the international coalition following Iraq''s invasion of Kuwait in 1990, the Jaguar acquitting itself well during Operation Desert Storm. During the 1990s and 2000s, Jaguars served as peacekeepers in the skies over Iraq, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo and Sri Lanka. The Jaguar has ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Under the Jaguar Sun - Italo Calvino

Facing the Jaguar - Babs Walters

The average person can keep a secret for forty-seven hours. Babs Walters held the worst kind of secret for nearly 70 years. Beginning at the age of 11, Babs suffered childhood sexual abuse at the hands of her father. His edict, ''Children should be seen and not heard,'' defined her childhood and groomed her to silence. Desperate to be loved and seeking approval, the good little girl absorbed both the responsibility and the shame that was not hers to begin with. Despite the generational trauma and abuse that haunted her childhood, Walters made a promise to herself when she realised that ''We are not what happens to us. We are the meaning and purpose we give to what happens to us.'' Now, decades later, author Babs Walters shows us how uncovering the truth is a critical step to healing. Facing the Jaguar is an inspirational story of resilience and courage - a story that proves anything is possible when we claim our truth and shine a light in even the darkest of places.

Jaguar XJ Series Saloons - Mark Sutherland

Jaguar expert and enthusiast Mark Sutherland’s comprehensive and definitive account explores the development of all three series of the Jaguar XJ saloons. Launched in 1968, the Series 1 Jaguar XJ was the result of a lengthy development process and the last Jaguar that Sir William Lyons was personally involved with. It had stunning looks and performance while also offering value for money compared with other luxury cars. The Series 2 followed, with a longer floor plan, and included the short-lived XJC Coupé, which is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Then came the Series 3, the first Jaguar produced with an outside design house and widely regarded as the epitome of all the XJ series Jaguars. Pininfarina’s input successfully balanced modernity with tradition in an exceptionally elegant design. The Series 3 would remain in production for fourteen years.Complete with owner’s insights and incisive views drawing on the author’s unrivalled know-how as the Jaguar Drivers Club XJ expert, this is an indispensable guide to one of the most successful series of British luxury cars.

Jaguar XK120 in Detail - Anders Ditlev Clausager

This is the eighth title in the now well-established In Detail series. Its subject, the Jaguar XK120, has become one of the immortals of sports car history and remains one of the most beautiful cars ever built. It took the London Motor Show by storm in 1948, and was built until 1954. Combining extraordinary docility with a startling 120mph top speed, it was the car to be in, whether for cruising California boulevards or racing at Le Mans. The book is published in association with the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust and written by the Trust''s Archivist. Drawing from company records and archives, he has been able to provide information on the XK120 that has never been available to enthusiasts before. This, and its focus on the XK120 alone rather than on the whole XK family, make this book uniquely informative.
