1982: THE INSIDE STORY OF THE SENSATIONAL GRAND PRIX SEASON

by Christopher Hilton

Published by Haynes Publishing. 1st. 2007

Nearly fine condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. It was savage, it was sombre, it was stunning and, in its most intense moments, it was genuinely sensational. No Grand Prix Season has ever been like 1982. Eleven different men won the sixteen races. Two died, one crashed, others engaged in an heroic struggle for the World Championship. The full story of the season, told by the men who lived it - including the author. Large format. Black cloth boards, gilt title to spine. Colour photos. 283 pages plus index.

A nice copy. Dustwrapper is lightly scuffed.
