Synopsis
The list of drivers profiled in RACERS 1948-1968 reads like a 'who's who' of the most famous talents in Formula 1. This is a unique record of those men who stood head and shoulders above the rest during what were perhaps the most challenging and dangerous years of the sport. They were racing drivers of unusual determination, skill and - most of all - courage.
Experienced motor racing historian Doug Nye presents his own personal tribute to the greatest racing drivers of the post-war period, each profile graphically illustrated with previously unpublished archive photography.
