Introduce your readers to the Ferrari, which has received numerous accolades for design and performance, both as race cars and luxury automobiles. Enzo Ferrari worked for Alfa Romeo, but left the company in 1939 to begin his own automobile company. Ferrari's main goal was to create an automobile capable of beating Alfa Romeo in a car of his creation. He opened Auto Avio Costruzioni in Modena, Italy, in 1939. In 1947, Ferrari took a V12, known today as the 125 S, out for it's first test drive. Ferraris have shined on the racing circuit and Enzo Ferrari was awarded for his devotion for adding to Italy's international reputation after World War II.
For nearly 60 years, Ferrari has built the sports cars which fire enthusiasts' dreams. This book catalogs the Maranello factory's output: more than 180 designs are illustrated with both artworks and photographs.

Ferrari means red. It means racing. Excellence, luxury, and performance. Less well-known is the man behind the brand. For nearly seventy years, Enzo Ferrari dominated a motor-sports empire that defined the world of high-performance cars. Next to the Pope, Ferrari was the most revered man in Italy. But was he the benign padrone portrayed by an adoring world press at the time, or was he a ruthless despot, who drove his staff to the edge of madness, and his racing drivers even further? Brock Yates's definitive biography penetrated Ferrari's elaborately constructed veneer and uncovered the truth behind Ferrari's bizarre relationships, his work with Mussolini's fascists, and his fanatical obsession with speed. "A fascinating and provocative book" The Observer.
Ferraris are dreams come true for lovers of four-wheeled vehicles, and veritable cult objects for appassionati and collectors from around the world. This book takes an all encompassing look at these symbols of Italian excellence.
Phil Hill, famous racing driver of the 1950s and 1960s, describes his years driving Ferraris, the cars and people involved, and provides an insider's view of the races of the era.
"Enzo Ferrari's Secret War" is a true account of Ferrari's personal double-game, keeping the Nazis guessing during World War Two, and his undercover secret missions at that time. The book is about history, mystery, at least two brutal murders, a wartime romance and the desirable high-performance automobiles from Italy. The link is Enzo Ferrari's determination and skills, his tenacity and his high risk role-playing under pressure. Ferrari's dangerous secret role was a gamble which enabled his company to grow and, after the war ended, make global automotive and motorsport history. This book will change perceptions of the Ferrari story as the car company's growth over more than half a century is linked to five turbulent years of war and Enzo Ferrari's secret life. Also revealed is the involvement of New Zealand soldiers fighting in Italy, their role in the Ferrari story, and Enzo Ferrari's impact on New Zealand motorsport after the war.
