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.

From the Back Cover
From the heart of Formula One to the edge of the sound barrier, Motor Racing: The Golden Age is a stunning pictorial celebration of the highs and lows in the ultimate test of speed and skill.
