This book was panned when it was launched, lots of inaccuracies, poor quality photos, pretty sure that even JC distanced himself from it as the publishers had made so many changes. I think they did a leather bound version which was a limited run and cost a fortune when new.

I have a copy of this book. Can't say I've read it so can't comment on the inaccuracies, but if your a big Ferrari fan as I am its a nice book to have in the collection or on the coffee table.

Same here W111AM

I think the illustrations are very good but like you dont want to read 400 pages of it. Mine is bound in linen and fits in a sleeve

I have a copy. It isn't THAT bad but nor is it worth paying very much for. Clarkson only wrote about one paragraph as the lead of each chapter. The picture reproduction is not as good as it should be. They come up periodically on Ebay sometimes with silly asking prices.
