"
The Cassell Book of the Ford "New Anglia" (1953-59) by Ellison Hawks is a practical and clearly written owner-driver handbook devoted to one of Ford of Britain's most successful post-war small cars. Covering the full production life of the New Anglia, the book explains the car's mechanical layout and operation in straightforward, non-technical language, making it accessible to motorists with little formal engineering background. Hawks guides the reader through the fundamentals of the model, from general layout and routine servicing to an understanding of how the vehicle's systems work together in everyday use.
The volume is organised into logically structured chapters dealing with bodywork, wheels and tyres, suspension, steering, braking, engine, carburation, cooling, transmission, electrics, lubrication, and technical data, all supported by clear black-and-white photographs, diagrams, wiring layouts, and fault-finding tables. Issued as part of the respected Cassell Motoring Series and published in London in 1963, this edition reflects accumulated updates from earlier printings and represents a mature, authoritative guide for keeping the New Anglia running efficiently. It is both a useful period workshop reference and a nostalgic document of 1950s British motoring culture, and would particularly appeal to classic Ford enthusiasts, restorers of post-war British cars, and collectors of vintage motoring manuals."
