Alfa Romeo Giulia, Spiders and Coupes by Richard Bremmer
Alfa Romeo Giulia History and restoration by Pat Braden.
Also, Alfa Romeo Coupes 1963-1976 - Brooklands Books - a collection af magazine articles and road tests.

Thanks.

Keith is an authority in his own right on various sportscars, including Alfa. He started out publishing the Alfa Romeo Market Letter as an enthusiast which blossomed into the current SCM or Sports Car Market Magazine. He is also the announcer at CI a lot of the time, describing the cars and giving brief histories. Pat wrote the majority of the Alfa material for Keith's magazine until his death. So you may want to take my opinion as biased and wait for some others to chime in on the value of his book.
