Go Like Hell....

[TimCollier]

I've been reading this book the past week, and let me tell you that it has been a tough one to put down.

It's titled "Go Like Hell: The story of Ford and Ferrari at Le Mans"

For anyone interested in the story of Le Mans in the 60's (and who isn't!), you will find a lot of history to be found in this book, with some great photos as well.

Knowing more about how Enzo Ferrari built his empire, and how Henry Ford II got into racing, along with other famous names in the automobile world such as Lee Iacocca, Carol Shelby and the great Phil Hill...leading to the clash of the titans...I really would love to find some video from those races and watch history in motion. That '66 race is multiplied by 10 now as far as being one of the most important in the history of auto racing.

If you like reading, and love history and racing, this is one book that won't disappoint.

There are a lot of books that focus on the cars -- this one focuses on the people and that's what makes it so good.
