Richard Williams has done a masterful job of re-creating what I call "period-feel" in his splendid little book "The Last Road Race." What he actually does in the early-mid chapters is to examine the personalities of the key drivers who found themselves at Pescara in 1957 and how their driving careers started and evolved up to that point. He inserts characters such as legendary motor racing ...             The Grand Prix Saboteurs6 reviews Joe Saward Morienval Press, 2006 In Depth Read of resistance Networks I found this book especially engrossing because it combines two things I am very fond of - history and motorsports.

During the war, Williams was sent to France to help set up resistance networks to foil Nazi plans and help the Allies win the ...             GM Century/Regal/Lumina/Monte Carlo/Cutlass Supreme/Grand Prix 1997-00 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair ...3 reviews The Nichols/Chilton Editors Haynes Manuals, Inc., 2000 Same Old Chilton's, but Good to Have Around This is more a repair/replace manual than a trouble shooting manual. So much of these cars is now so computer driven and electrical that a shop that has the right instruments really needs to trouble shoot problems via the computer. Otherwise, this manual is great for a lot of basics as well as wiring and capacities. I use the manual (and the other ones I have for my other cars) for brakes, ...             Grand Prix Data Book David Hayhoe Haynes Publishing, 2006 This long-standing reference work is rightly regarded as the 'Wisden' of Formula 1.

Rare Images of the First 100 Years Quentin Spurring David Bull Publishing,U.S., 2006 This richly illustrated photographic essay captures the human drama and technical ingenuity that have characterized Grand Prix racing ever since the first event in 1906.

Wish they could do another as there are so many more drivers that could be included.             Grand Prix Cars, 1945-19653 reviews Mike Lawrence Motor Racing Publications, 1999 An outstanding, extensive, in-depth reference.
