Ferrari: The Road from Maranello

by: Dennis Adler

In 1945, Enzo Ferrari, the onetime director of Scuderia Ferrari, Alfa Romeo's fabled racing program, emerged from Alfa's shadow to create his own legend. Out of the rubble of World War II, Ferrari established an auto works whose products would surpass anything before seen. Demand for handcrafted racing cars in postwar Italy, however, was slight. At the urging of a former colleague, Ferrari found a profitable niche for his creations in America-which still remains Ferrari's biggest market.

Now esteemed automotive journalist, historian, and photographer Dennis Adler presents Ferrari: The Road from Maranello-the stunningly illustrated story of one of the most coveted and recognized automobile lines in the world. Written with the full cooperation of the Ferrari works, this sumptuous book is illuminated throughout with more than 200 color and one hundred fifty archival black-and-white photos, some of which have never before been published. Featured are many legendary Ferraris from road and track: the Tipo 125, Ferrari's debut production racer; the Farina Cabriolet, the first Ferrari for consumers; the 212 coupe (the Inter); the 365 GTB/4 Daytona; the 312 series cars that dominated world endurance racing in the early 1970s; the incomparable Testa Rossa and Berlinetta Boxer series; the brutally powerful F50, "the fastest road car ever"; and Ferrari's Grand Prix and Formula One cars, driven by champions from Alberto Ascari to Niki Lauda to Michael Schumacher.

Chronicled in interviews with racing legends including Dan Gurney, Carroll Shelby, and Phil Hill, as well as renowned Ferrari designers Sergio Pininfarina, Sergio Scaglietti, and many others is the fascinating history of Ferrari through its successes and failures, setbacks and triumphs.

Ferrari Prototype Era: 1962-1973 in Photographs

by: Alan Henry

Beginning with the first Ferrari mid-engine prototype, the 246SP, and carrying through to the 512s and mighty 312PBs, author Alan Henry recounts an epic period in motor racing of indomitable cars and superb drivers in Ferrari Prototype Era: 1962-1973 in Photographs. This beautiful photographic history brings back these trend-setting sports-prototypes in all their glory, as well as the drivers who raced them and the classic circuits that were host to their legendary competitions.

Ferrari waged fierce battles and had long, intensive rivalries with Porsche, Ford, Matra, and other marques. In 1962 Ferrari won the new Challenge Mondiale (World Challenge), and repeated their success in 1963, 1964, 1965, 1967, 1968, and 1972. Ferrari's efforts were bolstered by an international field of successful concessionaires-the privateer teams-led by Luigi Chinetti's North American Racing Team (NART), Jacques Swaters's Ecurie Francorchamps, and Ronnie Hoare's Maranello Concessionaires. Most of the Scuderia Ferrari sports car drivers also raced in Formula 1, either for Ferrari or for opposing teams.

This explosive display of driving talent coincided with an exciting revolution in technology, as rear-engine designs began to supplant traditional front-engine cars in the early sixties. Sports car racing was hugely popular and on par with Formula 1. From the sheer size of the crowds shown here, it is easy to see how important winning the World Championship was to manufacturers.

Replete with fascinating detail, Ferrari Prototype Era captures the most compelling images of the men and machines of this 12-year period in one volume, including insights on drivers, technical developments, chassis numbers for each car, and race details.
