This is the story of the Historic Sports Car Club. Over a period of 50 years, the Club grew from the germ of an idea to become Britain's leading race organising Club for cars from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. The Club's strapline is 'pure historic racing'. This unique book, illustrated with over 500 photographs, tells the story of half a century of growth for historic racing in Great Britain. It is a story of ups and downs, of triumph and tragedy. From humble beginnings, the early years were faltering before the Club moved into race organisation in the early 1980s. There were times of financial trauma and upheaval and the Club came close to bankruptcy. However, the last two decades have been spectacularly successful. The race programme has grown, the membership has hit record levels and the portfolio of championships has doubled. Allied to that success, the Club's finances have improved beyond all recognition and its standing in British motor sport has scaled new heights. This is the story of those 50 years: but it is also the story of the people behind the Club, people who cared enough about historic motor racing to play a role in building the Historic Sports Car Club.

Stirling Moss is an absolute legend. The very name conjures up speed, excitement, heroics and adventure. This is the fascinating story of his early years and his meteoric rise to fame. Based entirely of Sir Stirling's own archives and his personal scrapbooks, diaries and albums, this book is unique. Never before has so much intriguing material been published on, arguably, the greatest racing driver of all time. The full story is here: the Grand Prix racing, the sports and sports racing cars, the rallying exploits, the little 500 racers, the record-breaking, the girls, the friends; there are great names like Fangio, Farina, Ascari, Hawthorn, Collins; many of the most evocative racing cars - C-types and D-types, Maseratis, Coopers, HWMs, Kiefts, XK 120s, Frazer Nashes, Mercedes-Benz W196, BRM; and, Moss is quoted extensively, as his famous rallying sister Pat Moss-Carlsson. They relive and bring alive this formative, and very challenging, period in his life - the early successes, the frustration of bad cars and retirements, the great cars, the circuits, the rivals. This book brings alive the colour, the atmosphere, the danger, the girls and the fun of this wonderful period in motor sport.

This is the second of a high quality series to collect & keep. Moss recovered from the accident that had almost killed him the year before and you can relive the experience as he relishes the challenge of the newly-introduced F1. The book is based on Moss' own scrapbooks, albums and great memories. It is a beautifully reproduced and presented book, capturing in glossy period photography and stylish archival text the excitement of motor racing in its heyday. Stirling Moss is an icon. Even just the words 'Stirling Moss' conjure up an immediate picture - an image of speed, excitement, daring, jet-setting and beautiful women. By 1961 he was at the height of his remarkable career. He was unquestionably the finest racing driver in the world, the benchmark by which lesser mortals were judged, and a charismatic sportsman, known the world over. A hero to millions, his story is the stuff of legend. Often battling against the odds, he would brilliantly triumph against adversity. There was no better illustration of this than his 1961 season. Being better prepared for the new formula, Ferrari had a new, much more powerful engine than the British constructors. So Moss was to race with an under-powered Lotus. But Lotus could not sell his team a 1961 car so he had to race a 1960 example. Stirling preferred to race for a gentlemanly private entrant rather than a works team. And Ferrari had three, and at times four and five cars, ranged against him. As the best in the world, Moss relished a challenge and needed some handicapping to level the playing fields and feed his addiction to true competition. For 1961, though, the uncrowned champion was handicapped in four ways. Stirling was driving last year's car, a car with considerably less power and one entered by a private team. He had no team mates to help him but was on his own - a David against several Goliaths. Surely that was too much, even for a genius? Add to that the massive accident he suffered during 1960 of which "Autosport" Editor, Gregor Grant, wrote: 'His remarkable recovery from his serious Spa accident gained for him the admiration of the world, and was a lesson in determination and sheer courage that would be difficult to emulate'. The stage was set for one Stirling's most incredible seasons and this is the behind-the-scenes story told by his own scrapbooks, his albums, his recollections and no holds barred comments about the cars, the circuits, the crumpet and the other drivers. Here we have all the fun and the flavour! It includes over 500 illustrations.
