This review is from: Maserati: A Racing History (Hardcover)

The best book on Maserati period! Backed by meticulous research, the book deals expertly with the history of the Maserati brand. Helps shed light on the storied Ferrari-Maserati relationship. Great reference book backed up by a wealth of photos and bios of key Maserati figures including Alfieri Maserati and Baron Emmanuel 'Toulo' de Graffenried.
