John's Reviews > Faster: How a Jewish Driver, an American Heiress, and a Legendary Car Beat Hitler's Best

This is an interesting book that presents a lot of historical background to the Grand Prix cars, races and drivers of the mid to late 1930's. I found the final race, the main theme of the book, to be overdramatic and anti-climactic. Bascomb is obviously not a motor sports writer. Still, if you are the least bit interested in GP history the book is a worthwhile read.
