Cloth. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. A DEFINITIVE, ABSORBING LITERARY AND VISUALLY SPECTACULAR PUBLICATION!"Motor racing was born in France.On 22 July 1894, twenty-one "horseless carriages" chased each other from Paris to Rouen along the public road. Officially it was a reliability trial, but that did not stop drivers racing. Count Jules de Dion "won", driving his steam car at 11 mph, only to be disqualified for taking a stoker, literally a "chauffeur", to keep the engine going. A hundred years later, motor racing is a high-technology sport and a huge global business. The fastest racing cars do well over 200 mph, their engines monitored by data links and computers; drivers compete for millions of dollars and they head the top rank of professional sporting superstars. The evolution of international motor racing, with its twin themes of individual competition and the pursuit of engineering excellence, is one of the great stories of the twentieth century. 'THE CHECKERED FLAG' tells that story in full, as the sport celebrates its centenary." 400 pages. Contents of the book include: "A unique, year by year reference of 100 years of international motor racing; The complete record of Grand Prix racing and the Drivers' World Championship; The full story of the Indianapolis 500 and the American National Championship; The history of the Gordon Bennett races, the Targa Florio and the Mille Miglia; The full details of the technical development of the racing car, clearly explained; Over 500 photographs of the sport's top drivers, classic cars and great moments; The winners, the circuits and the lap records, in a comprehensive results section."
