Some racing drivers are seemingly born to win, such is the enormity of their talent. Others achieve greatness in other ways - through triumph over adversity, individual acts of heroism, or personal charisma, sometimes a combination of all these things. These are the Racers Apart, the people who have graced their chosen sport of motor racing or land and water speed record breaking in a special way, with honor and distinction, irrespective of the results which they put into the record book. For distinguished motor racing author and journalist David Tremayne they include people like Chris Amon, Mario Andretti, Jim Clark, Dan Gurney, Parnelli Jones, Nigel Mansell, Rick Mears, Ayrton Senna and many, many more! In Racers Apart, the author not only offers his personal tribute to a group of sportsmen whose achievements and behavior have both moved and inspired him, but he adds what he calls the "other voices" - the often revealing recollections of some of the people who worked most closely with his chosen drivers and who were similarly touched by their greatness. It is 293 pages long and features many black & white photos accompanying the stories. This copy of Racers Apart has been signed on the title page by the author, David Tremayne, himself!
