Here is the complete story of all the Ford Escorts that were rallied and raced by factory teams for more than 30 years. This story started in 1968, and came to a colorful conclusion in 1998, when the Escort was finally supplanted by the equally glamorous Focus WRC. The fully updated fourth edition of this best-selling book includes details of all the 'works' Escort RS Cosworth and Escort WRC cars which won so many world-class events in the 1990s.
