The Power and the Glory is the compelling story of a century of motor racing, and a vivid account of the development of motor sport from the pioneer years in the 1890s into today's multimillion dollar industry. This book, which accompanies the BBC/A&E TV series of the same name, is beautifully illustrated with specially commissioned photographs and paintings of the classic races and of outstanding personalities. It dramatically captures man's passion for speed and his love affair with fast, beautiful cars.

BBC Books, 1992. A near fine copy in a very good unclipped d/w with light shelf scuffing to the rear panel. A promotional sticker for the TV series is attached to the front panel.
