Product Description

Product Description

Woven together into one feast of nostalgia, Bill Boddy's classic books "Brooklands Giants" and "Aero-Engined Racing Cars at Brooklands" have been re-issued in a single combined volume to meet popular interest in the extraordinary machines that roared round the famous banked racing circuit from its inception in 1907 to its demise upon the outbreak of war in 1939. With an enthusiast's delight, the revered author, the long-term Editor of "Motor Sport magazine", describes those adventurous times, the monster cars and their intrepid drivers.


About the Author

Bill Boddy, who has contributed to numerous motoring and aviation journals, saw his first Brooklands race meeting in 1927, after which he almost lived at the track. He founded the Brooklands Society, which led to the Brooklands Museum Trust. He lives near Llandrindod Wells, Powys.
