"I have to give this one five stars easy, I wasn't able to put it down and found myself caught up in the battle between Ferrari and Ford. The history and actual accounts incorporated with this story really puts you in the back and forth battle between these giants of racing in the 1960's. I would highly recommend this for car enthusiasts and history buffs alike as it is an interesting point in history where a huge amount of automotive ingenuity was thrust into the international spotlight with even more failure and disappointment."
gives good analysis of Le Mans, the cultural aspects of Ferrari vs Ford and tells a lot about racing's greatest test at Le Mans and the people who put the cars together, drive them and sometimes die going 200mph+
"One of the most interesting and entertaining books I've ever read. At times utterly heartbreaking. Full of fascinating people, sexy cars, glamour, death, and speed. Does not read like non-fiction."
