Overview By Sir Stirling Moss OBE with Alan Henry We have a limited number of copies left. The covers are 'new old stock' and have some scuffs and blemishes but are 'serviceable '. This acclaimed book tells the story of each of the 529 races in which the great Stirling Moss took part, from the start of his racing life in 1947 to his career-ending crash at Goodwood in 1962. Told in Sir Stirling’s own words, the book is packed with detail and anecdote, supported by a wealth of photographs – many previously unpublished – that show all the greatest moments and the extraordinary variety of cars he drove. This is a book to treasure as well as a unique reference source. Every race covered in detail – plus hillclimbs, rallies and record-breaking. Told with superb clarity and recall, whether a minor ‘clubbie’ (such as his first race at Brough in Yorkshire) or a major international (such as the 1955 Mille Miglia in Italy). Lavish illustration of every type of car, all the important victories, and races from every part of the globe. Packed with fascinating detail and anecdote, including numerous nuggets of new material that will delight fans.

Reviews ‘The bookcases of Moss fans will be groaning with the rush of recent titles, but this new one from the man himself and F1 authority Alan Henry offers a welcome angle. From his debut at the ’47 Harrow CC Trial in his Dad’s BMW 328 to the grim ’62 Glover Trophy at Goodwood, the pair list every event he contested.’ Classic & Sports Car
