Stirling Moss Ordine dei libri (cronologico)

Published to mark the 80th birthday of Sir Stirling Moss OBE, this important book tells the story of each of the 529 races in which he took part, from the start of his racing life in 1947 to his career-ending crash at Goodwood in 1962. Told in Sir Stirling’s own words, this book is packed with detail and anecdote, supported by a wealth of photographs – many previously unpublished – that show all the greatest moments and the extraordinary variety of cars he drove. This will be a book to treasure.

The first authorized biography--with over 350 color photos--of an extraordinarily gifted and competitive sportsman. Stirling Caulfield Moss drove professionally in nearly 500 races until his near-fatal crash in 1962. By the end of his career, he had become racing's most famous and most adored celebrity. Moss's tally of wins was proportionally higher than any other driver's, ever, by a wide margin. From his first race in 1948 to his last, heady days of the early 60s and beyond, his life and career unfold in great detail: the family history and school days; his start on the track and entrance into the big league; his experience driving for Mercedes; the private races; and the crash and recovery. And, because the author enjoyed free range over every aspect of Moss's life, many of the amazing stories here have never been told before. Designed by David Costa, who created The Beatles Anthology.

A guide to the Goodwood motor circuit, and a celebration of its eventful history and atmosphere. The best drivers of their day - Hawthorn, Brabham, Clark, Moss and Hill - went head to head around Goodwood's famous corners. Alongside the action on the track, Goodwood's very British blend of style, hospitality and derring-do became part of the social fabric of the 1950s and 1960s. The story of Goodwood is brought to life by cherished memories from the great drivers who competed there, including Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart, as well as more recent arrivals like Damon Hill describing the excitement of racing around Goodwood in a historic car. The book is illustrated with nostalgic images from the Goodwood archives.

When Ayrton Senna died on the weekend of the San Marino Grand Prix on 1st May 1994, the shock reverberated around the world. Brazil declared three day's national mourning, as the sports world began to try to assess Senna's contribution to motor racing, and his place in the pantheon of all time greats of the sport of motor racing. This book looks at his early life in Brazil through to his breakthrough into motor racing, his climb up the ranks of the lower formulas to his triumphs in Formula One including his three World Championships. It also assesses Senna's other life as a successful businessman and his country's favourite son.

This book features fifteen one day and half-day drives through the landscape of one of the most varied regions in England.

All the routes have been chosen by Britain's best-known Formula One racing driver, Stirling Moss, and are described by Lakeland author, Colin Shelbourn. Alongside the description of the main routes is a wealth of information on things to see and do along the way, including picnic sites, view-points and even places to stop and take a walk.

Each route is designed to offer the reader a relaxed and interesting drive and is accompanied by an easy-to-follow map, highlighting the features mentioned in the text and a gazetteer giving comprehensive information on the attractions to be found en route, including museums, famous houses, castles, gardens and visitor centres.
