Auto Union Album is a superb photographic record of the racing exploits of the legendary mid-engined Silver Arrows designed by Professor Ferdinand Porsche (1934-1937) and Professor Robert von Eberhorst (1938-1939). Learning of a collection of negatives from the 1930s discovered by Auto Union GmbH, author Chris Nixon was granted permission to use them as a basis for this book, which grew considerably with the discovery of two more sets of negatives and some high quality original prints. Although the Auto Unions are naturally the stars of this album, their competitors in that Golden Age of motor racing are not forgotten, and there are some splendid images of the other Silver Arrows, Mercedes-Benz and Alfa Romeo within these pages, together with photos of the men who drove them, such as Hans Stuck, Bernd Rosemeyer, Achille Varzi, Ernst von Delius, Rudolf Carracciola, Manfred von Brauchitsch, Luigi Fagioli, Hermann Lang and Dick Seaman. Auto Union Album is a natural successor to Chris Nixon’s earlier, highly acclaimed books about Grand Prix racing in the 1930s, ‘Racing The Silver Arrows’ and ‘Rosemeyer!’.
