David McKay was a long time motor racing enthusiast and motoring journalist who adopted and popularized the name "Scuderia Veloce"and had rather a large impact on racing..the subtle introduction of sponsorship, a famous Jaguar and the legendary 250LM are all well known, and this is the story of all those things and many more....interspersed with the best of his personal life and just a few regrets..after all, he was probably not one for confessions!As an untrained journalist David learned the art of putting words together well and this book benefits from that well developed skill..it is one of those rare books that is hard to put down because it is both interesting and well written; and whilst it is not over illustrated, the photos have been chosen with care for their interest. A very good read, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for its coverage of both motor racing history and the early years of the Ferrari agency in New South Wales..
