5.0 out of 5 stars A Best Buy Sep 22 2010
By HTAPaul - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
After thinking "Brothers Rodriquez" was the best book I had on this era of racing, I got this. Amazing picture clarity....from angles close to the car (dangerously allowed back then). What is most mind boggling is the knowledge contained in most captions....often the car serial number. Driver's name and Team name with tidbits of why the car broke down, how long did the driver live past this event (often losing their life racing somewhere else), and other bits of trivia that fill in gaps in your knowledge. After getting this, I pre-ordered the up coming book featurning 1950-59. I rate this an A++/Must Buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gearhead's review Mar 11 2010
By W. Barker - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is my 4th Paul Parker book and this one as the others is wonderful. If you're a fan of this era (and I certainly am) then you can't help but enjoy this book. The pictures are a treasure trove with insightful but minimal commentary. Just what I want: accurate and succinct text with very good photography.

I highly recommend this book or any of Paul Parker's books. The titles tell you exactly what you're getting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Memories of a great era Feb 6 2010
By Eric Wishart - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I loved the sports cars of the '60s, and will always remember the Ford/Ferrari battles at Le Mans and the dramatic finish in 1969. I fell in love with the Ferrari 250 LM and still think it is one of the most amazing cars the Scuderia ever produced. If you remember the era buy it, if you're too young, this is a good way to discover it.
