If you are looking for a book with lots of text to learn about these cars, this is not for you. This book is probably best savoured as a complement once you already know the history behind the cars (904, 906, 910, 907, 908, 917, etc) and the races (Le Mans, Targa Florio, Nürburgring, etc).

After you learn about these, you will see the point in this book is mainly to delight yourself with the images shown.

This is a beautifully put together and carefully researched work, containing mostly never before seen pictures, and most of them taking almost a full page or two to really amuse yourself with the photographs.

Since it's not very easy to find, I'd recommend you to buy it the moment you find it, since it seems it will soon be a classic and will be both expensive and quite hard to obtain.

This is an excellent book about the role of Porsche in the very best years of car racing.

May be more color pictures should be an improvement, but in any case I think this book it's a "must" for every body who loves car racing, mainly endurance races.
