Ferrari by Hans Tanner 3rd Ed

AS a creator of great motorcars, in the tradition of Ettore Bugatti, Enzo Ferrari is inevitably compared to that great artist/designer and it is perhaps not surpris-ing that his own creations should already be sought out and preserved with much the same devotion and enthusiasm as are the classic Bugattis. The product of a more technological age, Ferrari is undoubtedly the more sophisti-cated engineer and has led the world in racing-car engine and chassis design. On the other hand, the body design of many of his beautiful motor cars has been the work of the specialist coachbuilders. The story of Enzo Ferrari, which this third edition brings up-to-date, is of an intense personal struggle for achievement in the highly competitive field of Grand Prix and Sportscar racing, with a very great measure of success. Mr Tanner's exceptional opportunities at Modena, of obtaining his information at first hand, and his own engineering and racing experience enabled him to produce this masterly saga to serve as a record for all time of Ferrari the man, his fine motorcars and his outstanding racing successes. The extensive appendices tabulate all the facts and statistics on the racing drivers, the race results and the technical data on the cars themselves, that the most exacting devotee is likely to demand.
