Enzo Ferrari was the dynamic, but enigmatic, creator of what
is now one of the greatest automotive brands in the world. How he created the
marque that bears his name is a fascinating and absorbing story. The history of
Enzo Ferrari as a marketeer, publicist and manager is recounted in words and
with many unique previously unpublished historical photographs and documents.
Enzo raised himself from an out-of-work eighteen year-old to
a racing car manufacturer who launched the team bearing his name in 1947, by
manufacturing his own technically advanced 12-cylinder racing cars. Enzo
Ferrari’s story and the facts of that amazing first season are recounted in
previously unavailable detail, with copies of many official documents and
reports that have never been published before.
Also included is a ‘facsimile’ of the 1947 “Libro di Corse”,
the official 1947 Ferrari race book. This additional 96 page book includes
copies of Ferrari’s official reports of all fourteen events in that inaugural
year of racing.
This exceptional publication is a collaboration between
Ferrari historian Nathan Beehl, respected motor-sport journalist Doug Nye, and
features many rare items from the renowned Ronald Stern Ferrari Archive.
