Since its original publication in 1975 Maserati - The Sports, Racing and OT Cars has been recognised throughout the world as THE Maserati book. The reason is sinnple - within these covers is a unique pictorial record of every Maserati made by the legendary Italian company, together with detailed specifications and informative captions. Also featured are the many 'hybrid' Maseratis as well as the company's other products such as spark plugs, batteries and, of course, motorcycles.
Whilst the history of the Maserati company has been full of traumas the marque has survived for 60 years and has never failed, throughout its long history, to produce cars of outstanding merit both in terms of performance and styling. Cars such as the 250F single-seater which claimed so many Grand Prix victories in the 1950s, the remarkable series of 'Birdcage' sports racing cars so successful in the early 1960s and the stunning road cars of the 1970s - to mention but a few.
All of those who appreciate fine machinery will be delighted to find pictures in this book which will once again bring to life some of the greatest cars from the history of motoring, cars which proudly carried the Trident through city streets, along open roads and around the race circuits of the world.
For this new third edition authors Richard Crump and Rob de la Rive Box have not only brought the book up-to-date with respect to current and recent Maserati models, but have been through the text to add new material - including all chassis numbers - and make revisions in the light of information which has come to hand since previous publication. They have also been able to add an entirely new section of colour photographs.
Richard Crump, an Englishman living in England, is deeply interested in the history of motor racing - particularly with regard to Italian marques and started the British Maserati Club in 1971.
Rob de ia Rive Box is a Dutchman living in Switzerland. Although he once specialised in selling classic Italian sporting cars, nowadays he travels around Europe photographing historic and interesting cars and has also written more than 30 motoring books. Vissza
