“Epic” is the word that comes to mind when describing these three incredible volumes-1,025 pages in all-a different kind of Le Mans 24 Hour history as told
by American players, drivers, team owners and mechanics about their personal experiences at Le Mans, on and off the track. The stories and anecdotes printed here through 28 years of research and interviews and seven years of writing are simply incredible-hysterical. amusing, heart-wrenching-the glorious details of what went on simply riveting. Many of the black and white and color images have never been seen before and came from museums, collections and the best professional and amateur photographers around the world. No Le Mans enthusiast should miss out on this as the most important set of books to ever add to their library. Bravo, Tim Considine!
