NOT only is this book the long awaited story behind the phenomenal Ferrari racing successes but it is also an extremely factual and informative work giving technical details and specifìcations of all the cars that have borne the insignia of the Prancing Horse.
The Author writes with the authority of first hand knowledge obtained with the fullest and friendliest co-operation of the ‘Commendatore’ himself in Modena and traces the story of his famous marque from its inception in the racing stable of Alfa Romeo right up to his 1959 Grand Prix contender.
The story of Enzo Ferrari and his World-beating cars inevitably includes many of the greatest names in motor-racing history and its pages pay worthy tribute to the memory of such famous drivers as Ascari, Fangio, Farina, Nuvolari, Villoresi and many others, not least two great Englishmen, Peter Collins and Michael Hawthorn without whose indomitable courage and determination even Ferrari’s cars could not have succeeded.
The appendices form a permanent reference for Ferrari facts and figures. (1959 Summary)
