This illustrated book shows an adventurous photo journey across Europe to the remotest regions of the USA, because no way is too far or too daring to reach the 'lost cars' in forgotten places.
The nostalgic subjects of the photo artist Dieter Klein are legends and outsiders: Porsche and Cadillac, VW Beetle and Citroen DS. On inconspicuous backyards, in old barns and dense forests, they beautifully show the charm of decay as well as the power of nature and inspire us to think up fantastic stories about the history of objects.
Text in English and German.

This excellent collection of pictures shows what nature would do to your car if you gave it half a chance, and (it) also felt like an excellent symbol of nature's general anti-travel posture. - Strong Words Magazine
