Porsche: The Sports Racing Cars 1953-72

Chronicle of the 'Giant-Killing' Years

By: Anthony Pritchard

Joining Haynes's growing stable of distinguished Porsche titles, this definitive volume tells the full story of Porsche's famed sports prototype and competition sports cars from 1953 to 1972. Authoritatively written and beautifully illustrated, it chronicles the 'giant-killing' years when Porsche was locked in combat with its arch rival Ferrari, and celebrates Porsche's victories at events such as Le Mans and the Targa Florio, and its excellent placings in other World Sports Car Championship events.
