Description

Grand Prix World Championship. Text and photographs by Louis T. Stanley. Foreword by Jack Brabham. "This is an absorbing racing book, a book which all interested in Grand Prix racing should read. The World Championship of 1959 is described in such a factual yet graphic way that I felt I had re-driven the races. There is the cut-and-thrust of Monaco; the long-awaited B.R.M. victory at Zandvoort; the intense heat of Rheims and the power-win by Brooks; the excitement at Aintree; the Ferrari triumph in Berlin overshadowed by the tragic death of Jean Behra; the Moss wins at Lisbon and Monza. Few people are better equipped than Mr. Louis Stanley to tackle this subject. His close association with Grand Prix racing gives him an intimate knowledge of the background to the World Championships, its politics, team tactics, all the Grand Epreuves circuits, and problems the present to car and driver. A personal friend of many of the great names in Grand Prix racing, there is no one better qualified to write this book." From the Foreword by Jack Brabham. The book has many bumps and scuffs on the covers but internally the book remains tight and bright. A LARGE BOOK THAT WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FREIGHT.
