This book is a written and visual documentation of the dream itself, from concept to the story of blank cheque orders at the 1988 motor show, and finally to the car as it is today.

On that Good Friday in 1865, he crept into the Lincoln box in the Ford Theater in Washington, and, standing close behind the gaunt President, he pronounced the words "Sic, semper, tyrannis," and pulled the trigger of his tiny gold-mounted derringer. John Wilkes Booth was a star in the American theater, adored by many women, lionized by many men. What were the forces that drove him to commit one of the most notorious crimes in our history? Here are the answers. Here is the story of the twisted emotions and the hidden passions that turned this handsome, talented young actor into a bitter, psychopathic killer.
