See the description below from the dustwrapper flap.  The book is of great interest to enthusiasts of historic racing in that the circuits used nowadays (for example Spa, Le Mans and Monaco) are described in their 1974 form – see the specimen pages below.

Originally published in Italy in Italian, though their version was naturally entitled ‘Da Monza a Indianapolis’! We are surprised to note that the paintings are not attributed to any artist, though they are extremely competent.
