Detailed Description:
Ferrari is one of the most romantic and most successful names in the history of motor racing. Enzo Ferrari's brilliant red racing cars have been an inseparable part of the Grand Prix scene for twenty-six years. No other manufacturer has enjoyed such a long and unbroken record of racing, few have gained so much success and no other marque inspires such fanatical enthusiasm. Grand Prix Ferrari describes in depth the design, evolution and racing record of every Ferrari single-seater from the first supercharged V-12 models that made their debut in the 1948 Italian Grand Prix to the sophisticated, mid-engined flat-12 cars raced in 1973. A well researched and entertaining text is illustrated by 48 pages of photographs of Ferrari cars and drivers.
Anthony Pritchard, described by the Ferrari Owners' Club magazine as "a recognised historian on the products of Maranello", has written a number of previous books including Formula One which was described by the Daily Mail as "a fine contribution to motor car literature", and The Encyclopaedia of Motor Racing which is now in its second edition. His history of post-war Grand Prix racing will be published by Robert Hale in 1974.
