Leica: The first fifty years

Distributed by Fountain Press

A legend in its own time, the Ferrari has long been considered the ultimate in automotive technology, style, speed, and power. Now, for the first time, this dazzlingly illustrated volume presents the complete history of the "Ferrari Idea" and the man who conceived it, Enzo Ferrari. An avid sports car enthusiast, Enzo Ferrari set up ship in the 1940s and produced the first real Ferrari in 1946, an ambitious 12-cylinder racing car called, simply, the 125, which won seven races in its debut year. For the next four decades, until his death in 1988 at the age of ninety, Enzo Ferrari oversaw the production of some of the most magnificent machines ever to hug the racetrack or grace the highways: the classic Testarossa, the GTO, the Dino, the Daytona, and the F40, to name but a few. 
Ferrari-Design of a Legend traces the evolution of the car's design and technology, highlights its triumphs on the international racing circuit, and documents the growth of its prestige as the automobile of choice for many of the world's most visible sports car lovers-from film directors to musicians and princes. 
Sumptuously printed in seven colors, including a special "Ferrari red," the book features a glorious portfolio section containing more than a dozen of the most celebrated models; a series of project sketches; photographs of Enzo Ferrari and of historic races and the drivers who won them; and a comprehensive illustrated catalog of all the Ferraris every produced. With a preface by Fiat chairman Giovanni Agnelli and essays by Ferrari experts Gianni Rogliatti, Valerio Moretti, and designer Sergio Pininfarina, Ferrari-Design of a Legend commemorates the first official Ferrari exhibition, held in Florence, Italy, in 1990. It will be irresistible to anyone for whom the mere sight of that rearing horse on a yellow ground-the famed Ferrari logo-sends a shiver of excitement racing down the spine.
