 Not as Good as the 2nd Edition
If you liked the 2nd Editon of the Standard Catalog of Cadillac, you'll undoubtedly be disappointed in this edition. This edition trades LaSalle information and price guide for a few more color photos of Cadillacs. While the LaSalle price guide is gone completely, the Cadillac price guide is unbelievably incomplete, leaving out pricing for 1921 through 1925, 1927-28, 1931 through 1935,38, 1940,46, 47,1950,51,52,1954 through 1958,1960through 1962 - and more. This edition leaves a lot to be desired for the true Cadillac/LaSalle aficionado.
 daddy loved it
it was the only book to have the knowledge and details for his 1938 caddy.
he's got 417 of 475 made and needed specific details that made his car special.
 Not Quite Standard Catalog
If you really like to read this is a great book. If you like Tables of Standards and lots of model pictures, you will be disappointed. The general organization can be quite different for model to model even if only a year of difference. You may find the item comparison at the first of one model and at the end of the next model. Forget it if you are a research scanner and want to compare the same item from introduction on. You are going to read a lot of words to find out what you want to know. It saving grace is that there is a lot of good detailed information.
 Comprehensive, BUT...........................
Better illustrated than the previous two editions, but there are a remarkable number of errors in the picture captions pertaining to year and model descriptions. Anyone using this as a "last word" reference had better look elsewhere.
 The definitive Cadillac Bible
Assisted by my wife, I've been the editor of LaCad, the Cadillac LaSalle Club of Australia's magazine for three years, and we've used the Standard Catalog of Cadillac as our reference for those three years. This issue tops the last issue by the inclusion of colour and even more photos.
Thanks to John Gunnell for this 'bible' of Cadillacs.
