Review:
... very readable and well researched. If you're a Porsche 908 fan you'll be hard pressed to find a better book on the subject, even if you do speak German. - Motor Sport
... this is the only 908 book you'll ever need. - Classic & Sports Car
A wealth of period, previously unreleased images evoke the fascinating atmosphere and excitement of the great seventies racing era. - Startline
Illustrated with heretofore unseen photography from the Porsche archives and elsewhere, and completed with the inclusion of the 908's full competition history. - Vintage Racecar
It's all here: race reports and results and technical developments (well translated from the original German), even a chapter on the 914 with a 908 motor that was produced for Ferry Porsche's 60th birthday! Plus hundreds of excellent photos within 234 large pages. Definitely worth a look. - New Zealand Historic Racing Register
A very comprehensive history of the 908 with over 330 excellent photos ... --Speedscene
