An Unconventional View of the Worlds Most Charismatic Cars
How much do you really know about
Ferrari, the worlds coolest, most exciting carmaker? Why did Enzo
Ferrari favor purple ink for all of his personal correspondence? Why
didnt Mario Andretti ever become a full-time Ferrari driver? Which
Hollywood actress inspired a shade of silver paint that is still
available from Ferrari today? And wheres the best place for an
authentic meal when youre visiting Maranello?
In The Ferrari Phenomenon, authors Matt Stone and Luca Dal Monte
offer a unique perspective on the iconic car manufacturer. They begin
with a revealing biographical sketch of Enzo Ferrari himselffrom his
childhood to his often-secret private lifeand they explain the founding
of the company in Modena, and its later move to Maranello. The book
concludes by profiling the new generation of executives responsible for
the companys success today, and the dramatic contemporary architecture
of the Maranello campus.
Throughout the book, the authors approach their subject in a manner
thats a little less seriousand a little more fun. The book explores
the lighter and lesser-known sides of Ferrari, not only through
conventional chapters and text, but also in shorter, quick-reading
pieces such as lists, quotes, and detailed photo captions. The result is
an original account that begins with young Enzos dreams, long before
he ever thought of producing cars under his own name, and covers rare
and one-off Ferrari cars, little-known episodes from Ferrari history,
and praise and complaints from great drivers and famous Ferrari owners.
Theres also a virtual tour of the Ferrari factory, and even advice on
what to see on a visit to Maranello.
Richly illustrated and beautifully designed, The Ferrari Phenomenon will give even die-hard tifosi new insight into the exciting and colorful world that is Ferrari.
9"x11" 160 page hardcover with 35 black and white photos and 124 color photos.
