Peter Grimsdale | Superveloce: How Italian Cars Conquered The World

Price 14.90 (29.14 лв.)
This product is second hand.
  • Superveloce by Peter Grimsdale is a fascinating exploration of the extraordinary combination of speed, engineering, design and sprezzatura that made Italian cars some of the most desirable machines in the world. Beginning with Italy's early achievements in motor racing and moving through the dramatic post-war renaissance of its automotive industry, Grimsdale asks how a country without the industrial advantages of Britain, France or Germany came to establish such enduring standards of innovation and style.

    Tracing a century of automotive genius, the book explores the rise of Ferrari, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Italy's great design dynasties while bringing to life charismatic figures such as Ascari, Varzi and Nuvolari. Grimsdale places these remarkable cars within the wider context of Italian culture, exploring connections between engineering, artistry and a creative tradition stretching back to Leonardo da Vinci. A compelling journey through Italian history, design and motorsport, Superveloce is an irresistible read for anyone fascinated by beautiful cars and the people who created them.
