DescriptionThe AuthorReviewsReader Reviews

Sleeping Beauties USA honors rusted and forgotten automotive treasures that have been found parked alongside the highways of America, waiting to be discovered again. Rather than showcasing typically brilliant, highly rebuilt show queens, the book instead explores the transience and inherent beauty of a car’s life, captured through stunning and evocative photography.

For more than 12 years, Bjoern Marek has worked as an automotive journalist for magazines like Europe’s Print-Magazine No. 1, focusing on American cars and trucks. He has traveled to the USA more than 20 times, and has published several automotive books, covering such marques as the VW Golf, Ford Capri, Citroen DS, and General Motors’ concept cars. He is 34 years old and lives in Dortmund, Germany.

"Lying besides highways, in creeks and behind barns, some are haunting, some melancholy, while some look tantalizingly recoverable." – Classic Cars
 "If you like abandoned wrecks and striking scenery, then this book, printed in full color on art paper, seems good value for the price." – The Automobile
