Reckoned by many to be one of the best books written on the "Silver Arrows" era in Grand Prix Racing when the state sponsored Mercedes Benz and Auto Union teams battled for domination of the sport in the most technically advanced cars ever seen and with the best drivers - Caracciola, Varzi, Nuvolari, Rosemeyer, Seaman, Stuck etc.
Author George Monkhouse was a genius photographer and a KODAK engineer who had access to the latest equipment and took stunning photos as he travelled with his friend, Mercedes driver Richard Seaman, around Europe (and to the USA) seeing at first hand how the Mercedes Team went motor racing between 1934 and 1939.
