Grand Prix Cars 1945-65 is the most comprehensive work on the subject ever published. Not only does it describe every Grand Prix car of the period, together with specifications and racing history, it also details projects which never even raced. Some of the entries will be new to many enthusiasts, cars such as Assegai, Baird-Griffin, Berkshire Special, Clairmonte, ENB, Gleed, Heck-BMW, Heron, Jennings, Jicey, Kieft, LDS, Monnier, Parnell, Sadler, Stebro, VM and Walker, as well as engine projects such as the Bond V8, Clisby V6 and Speed V8.
This is an era when great motor racing reputations were built. The author also recalls the charismatic marquees like Ferrari, Maserati, and Alfa Romeo; Mercedez-Benz, Porsche; BRM, Lotus and Cooper. Drivers such as Fangio, Ascari, Moss, and Hawthorn.
