This new book is written by the world's foremost authority on Italian spinning reels. It is a soft cover, 6" X 8½" spiral bound book that contains 150 pages on the history of the famous reel companies, ALCEDO of Torino, Italy  and CARGEM of Gemonio, Italy

Although this book is written in Italian there this much information that can be gathered by spinning reel collectors that do not read this language. There are over 85 color photo's of the famous ALCEDO spinning reels that show all of the different versions of each model. Also included are more than 55 color photos of the CARGEM spinning reels that show all the different versions for each model. There are five pages of photo's of the CarGem factory that you will find very interesting. There is also a list of all models that includes the rarity, value in euro dollars and special notes. 

As stated above this book is written in Italian but the photos alone are worth the price of the book. This book should be on the reference shelf of anyone with any interest in ALCEDO and CARGEM spinning reels, or just spinning reels in general.
