A fine history of the famous 5 litre chain driven car bodied by Labourdette and first owned by the famous French aviator Roland Garros. William ‘Bill’ Boddy covers the history of the car from French ownership throughout its life, including Ivy Cummings, Col. Giles and many years under the custodianship of Peter Hampton, before coming into the hands of David Heimann, who commissioned the book. Well illustrated with a mix of period black and white images and more recent colour, a super book on a very historic Bugatti.
