If you only buy one Corvette history book, this is the one to buy-<span style="font-style: italic">CORVETTE, America's Star-Spangled Sports Car</span>, 1953-1982 by Karl Ludvigsen! I bought the first edition when I was editor of CARS Magazine, bought a second one when I started VETTE magazine (kept one home, one in my office!) It has 784 pages, almost 1,000 photos, and Karl was kind enough to include Baldwin-Motion and its Phase III GT (Adam Tuckman's GT) in the history of the nameplate. It's the best. Now I have three editions! Check it out.
