Reflects a defining era in motorsport documented in words and intimate photographs, both black-and-white and colour, from the mid-1950s through the 1960s, when motor racing was still accessible to all, and the 1970s when overt sponsorship and television changed the sport for ever.
300 never before published photographs of paddock scenes from 1956 to 1979 Photographs of the author's visit to the Ferrari factory in 1967 Photographs of continental road circuits then and now Photographs which include the cars and personalities An enthusiast's tale of when motor racing was accessible to all Snatches of the author's life Reproduced programme covers, autographs, letters, tickets, etc Foreword by David Owen, OBE. A pot-pourri of enthusiastic reflections, in words and intimate paddock scenes, photographed in black and white and colour between the mid 1950s and through the late 1960s, when motor racing was still accessible to all, and, finally the 1970s when overt sponsorship and television changed the sport for ever. A defining era of motorsport's development.

In this, his first work, Anthony Carter writes with a passion for the motor racing he photographed widely in the UK and Europe during three defining decades. Apart from six months with the British Racing and Sports Car Club, the author had no professional involvement with the sport, and so writes 'from the other side of the fence' with a detached freshness and spontaneity. Anthony's photographs gathered dust in the loft before being rediscovered during a house move. They now represent a unique archive of the period.
