Synopsis
This book features extraordinary images of motor racing which give a unique insight into this most dangerous and exhilarating of sports. "Motor Racing The Golden Age" is a unique collection of over 275 images from the last century of racing. Following the design, format and idea of the successful "Football: The Golden Age", this book celebrates all aspects of the motor racing world - the drivers, the fans, the race tracks, the cars, the crashes and pit-stops. It goes further to look at the history behind motor racing - the hill climbs, rallies through cities and even the land speed records. "Motor Racing: The Golden Age" remembers when the cars were fast, the drivers were furious and the photographers the bravest men on the track - a true golden age of both sport and photography.

Reviews
This oversize book is a treasure trove of photographs gleaned from a variety of archival sources, all having car racing as their subject matter. The "golden age" to which the title refers is the period during which the "art" of car-racing photography stood at its dynamic finest: from the early years of the twentieth century to the 1970s. The black-and-white images offered in this album give intriguing aerial views of racetracks, informal snaps of famous drivers in action or in repose, a fun shot of drivers "recuperating" postrace at a Monte Carlo cafe, and several that capture loss-of-control accidents. Fast-paced action and fearless personalities leap from these pages. Introduced with spirit and style by world-renowned driver Jackie Stewart, this is a gripping book for car and sports enthusiasts.
