Gary L. Witzenburg Releases 11th Book, Legends in Motion: Inside Stories and Driving Adventures from the Wonderful World of Cars

New York, NY | March 4, 2026 – US Books Publisher announces the publication of Legends in Motion: Inside Stories and Driving Adventures from the Wonderful World of Cars, the 11th book by award-winning automotive journalist and author Gary L. Witzenburg.

This new volume brings together a selection of Witzenburg’s most entertaining, informative, and insightful articles drawn from more than four decades of automotive writing for major publications.

“Written in a light-hearted, non-technical style to entertain, inform and appeal to almost anyone, not just car enthusiasts,” says Witzenburg, “it brings together a variety of exciting and at times potentially treacherous behind-the-wheel driving adventures, inside stories on how certain special cars were created by bold and visionary leaders and much more.”

An impressive, magazine-size, full-color, 300-page book, Legends in Motion offers an insider’s view of driving excitement and automotive excellence that few authors can credibly deliver. Drawing from firsthand experience as an auto engineer, race driver and journalist, Witzenburg provides historical perspective and informed commentary on automotive design, innovation and the individuals who shaped the modern automotive industry.

“As a life-long enthusiast of all things automotive, I find this book to be both entertaining and informative. If you love cars and the fascinating evolution of this key industry, Gary Witzenburg’s latest work is for you. I recommend it highly.”

  • Robert A. Lutz, Vice Chairman, General Motors Corp., Retired

“Gary Witzenburg is a car guy. One who has succeeded at enough automotive engineering jobs to put real heft behind his favorite work, writing about cars, which he has done for decades. Witz takes you through car experiences ranging from driving 24-hour races to evaluating supercars for Playboy to interviewing John Z. DeLorean. He has done it all, professionally and well. Don’t wait for the movie. Buy the book.”

  • William Jeanes, Former Editor-in-Chief of Car and Driver; Former Publisher of Car and Driver and Road & Track

“When it comes to living the dream of being an automotive journalist in the Golden Age of the craft, Gary Witzenburg has been there and done that. Whether it was getting details on the next all-new Corvette, questioning John DeLorean about his sports and safety coupe, or racing around the Nürburgring in someone else’s car, Witzenburg built a career that stands among the best of his era. I am glad he worked in mine.

“The stories in this volume are priceless. Anyone who drove on high school dates in his mother’s ’57 Ford convertible before he even had a license earns my respect. That he is still writing and sharing his experiences more than half a century later raises that respect even further. Car lovers will appreciate this book.”

  • Jack R. Nerad, Auto Writer, Radio Host, Novelist, Former Motor Trend Editor-in-Chief
