To celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the iconic Bentley Continental, in June Nubes Argentea will publish the new book “Bentley Continental: The Genesis”. This new book is complementary to the previous ‘Continental Journeys’ published in 2017.
The discovery of new material recently unearthed and previously unseen has allowed us to bring to light new details of the fascinating history of the Bentley Continental. From the first thoughts in 1936, to the building of the ‘Embiricos’ Bentley, the Corniche, the Cresta, and the launch of the Continental in 1952, the genesis of the iconic Bentley will be narrated in detail, supported by a number of new period photographs, drawings and archival material.
The technical aspects, such as how the Bentley Continental was built, are also covered. Former Rolls-Royce and Bentley Chief Stylist Graham Hull has been entrusted to present the style analysis. The impact of the Bentley Continental on the automotive scene when introduced in 1952 is told through the autobiographies of some famous first owners.
Another book reflecting the usual Nubes Argentea quality, with an innovative and surprising use of paper.
Available by June.
