Essential Le Mans reads?

[joshdj]

Hi all,

I'm new to this forum, so I'll introduce myself briefly. My name is Josh, 22 year old Dutchman, big lover of music, autosport and lots of other things I'm probably forgetting right now.

Anyway, I'll be attending Le Mans for the second time (first time being 2009) this year and I'm looking for some good books to read in anticipation for this years race. Preferably any books about experiences or memoirs of drivers and/or other people involved in the race, or any other essential reads about the race.

A while ago I read that Kristensen is writing a book about his career, does anybody know any more about this (maybe a release date)? That'd be a great read to get into the mood for Le Mans.

Thanks in advance!

Josh

Thanks! I'll have a look into those.

I'm going together with my dad (and my mom but she won't be visiting the race) and we'll be staying at a campsite in Spay, about 10 km from the circuit, just like we did in 2009.

Thanks for the tips and links!
