Delve into the golden era of European motorsport with Rallying to Monte Carlo by veteran competitor Mike Couper, featuring a foreword by legendary broadcaster Raymond Baxter. Published in 1956 by Ian Allan Ltd, this first edition offers an intimate, firsthand account of competing in the perilous Monte Carlo Rally during the 1930s and 1950s.

Couper shares dramatic stories behind the wheel of heavyweight British classics, notably his modified Bentley and Humber Super Snipe saloons. Packed with gripping anecdotes, the book chronicles treacherous winter crossings over frozen mountain passes, blizzard navigation across Europe, mechanical grit, and the camaraderie of early post-war road rallying.

Illustrated with authentic black-and-white photographs and detailed route maps, this historical volume will appeal to collectors of classic rallying literature, vintage motorsport history, and British motoring heritage.
