Morgan Exploration
By Neil A. Miller
All you hardy Morgan loyalists have another addition to your libraries with the recent publication of Neil A. Miller’s Morgan Exploration, a photographer’s journey through an automotive tradition. Following a Foreword by Charles Morgan, Miller undertakes an artistic study of all things Morgan in celebration of the company’s 100th birthday.
It begins in 1969, when Miller’s initial transfixation with the Morgan ethos took him to the company’s Malvern Link factory where he began capturing the firm’s seminal essence on film. His documentation of the company’s inner workings shows every step along the path to production—down to metal shavings on the shop floor—illustrating the artistry lurking in every corner of the process.
The people who actually do the work are given their due with a segment devoted to their efforts, as are those who embrace ownership as devotees of this unique enterprise. Liberally laced with illuminating quotes and comments from members of the Morgan family, Miller’s book provides a graceful summation of what it means to be Morgan as the company enters its second century.
Available for $55 (£38) from enthusiast bookstores, the author at www.neilamiller.com, or the Morgan Motor Co. itself at www.morgan-motor.co.uk
