Ferrari 75 Years

A stellar combination of beauty, engineering, racing success, exclusivity, and Italian flair combine to make Ferrari the world's most legendary carmaker. All these traits coalesce in the form of Ferrari's road cars. No other sports car manufacturer has so consistently set the bar for style and performance. It's a near unbroken 75-year run of automotive hits:
- The 125S in 1947
- The versatile 340 in the 1950s
- The stunning 250s and 275s of the 1960s
- The Daytona in the 1970s
- The shocking F40 in the 1990s
- The modern era's outrageous hypercars like the Enzo, F8, and LaFerrari.

This book dives deep into Ferrari's sports car history beginning in 1947, but also examines Enzo Ferrari's early career with Alfa-Romeo before he launched his legendary company.

Automotive historian and photographer Dennis Adler offers Ferrari owners and fans a full and fascinating picture of Maranello's 75 years of sports car manufacturing. Adler's detailed text is accompanied by his breathtaking photography and supplemented by important historic images.

Ferrari Hypercars - The Inside Story of Maranello's Fastest, Rarest Road Cars

For over 60 years, Ferrari has produced cars that fire the imaginations of car lovers worldwide. Embodying the perfect combination of beauty, performance, exclusivity, and Italian flair, its vehicles have made it the world's most iconic carmaker. Though Ferrari has always produced road cars, the company has first and foremost focused on competition models, such as the handful of cars built in low-number serial production that campaigned on race courses the world over in the 1950s and 60s.
In "Ferrari Hypercars: The Story of Maranello's Fastest, Rarest Road Cars", author Winston Goodfellow profiles some of Ferrari's top creations - vehicles so startling in their performance capabilities that they surpass modern terms and attain the status of "hypercar."

This book begins by reaching back to the 1950s to establish the lineage of hypercars and goes on to showcase the best known examples since the 288 GTO, including the F40, F50, Enzo, and all-new la Ferrari. These cars were collector vehicles from the moment they rolled off the production line, though that was never the reason for their creation; they were made to be driven. A necessary read for any racing fan, "Ferrari Hypercars" exhaustively traces the history of the company's competition vehicles and establishes its status as a symbol for speed, luxury, and wealth.

The Ferrari Book - Passion for Design

Success is not founded on miracles, but is almost always the product of a clear concept-the pinnacle of an ambitious, even stridently innovative idea. However, the aura of Ferrari does indeed approach the miraculous.
What lies behind this phenomenon? What is the source of fascination for a brand whose creative designs are internationally recognized and enthusiastically received?

First, even today-70 years after the company was founded-the miracle of Ferrari is still due in large part to the personality of Il Commendatore, Enzo Ferrari.
Patience, passion, and being hard on himself and those around him gave the brand, under the emblem of the Cavallino Rampante, the power to become what it is today: sheer fascination on four wheels.

Second, the long list of international racing victories is equally important. There is no class, no competition, that Ferrari did not set its sights on and win more or less immediately during the company's last 70 years.

Finally, Ferrari is synonymous with aesthetics, elegance, and trend-setting design. The true value of a brand and its products is measured in the currency of impassioned devotion. This is the third and perhaps most vital element confirming the Ferrari miracle.

"The Ferrari Book - Passion for Design" traces the evolution of the miracle and lets us experience passion given automotive form in a large and engrossing format.

- On over 400 pages, editor Michael Köckritz, author Jürgen Lewandowski and photographer Michel Zumbrunn get up close and personal with the Ferrari phenomenon: its beauty and sex appeal, its class and power.
- Readers will learn about not only the most popular models, but also the most important designers who have shaped Ferrari.
- Includes many exciting stories and anecdotes surrounding the legendary brand and its automotive icons.
- The attractive design by Charles Blunier & Co. and a clean, uncluttered layout ensure the proper presentation worthy of the vehicles from Maranello.

More than a book, this is a unique and prestigious document that reviews year by year, from 1947 to 1988, the true sporting epic of Ferrari's Ferrari. Page by page, we find champions of the calibre of Tazio Nuvolari, Alberto Ascari, John Surtees, Niki Lauda, Gilles Villeneuve and many others, who in Formula 1 and elsewhere won world titles at the wheel of unforgettable cars such as the 500 F2, the 158 F1, the Testa Rossa, the 250 GTO, the 330 P4 and the successful 312 T family, from the 1950s through to the late 1980s.

All accompanied by contextual texts by Leonardo Acerbi, a Ferrari historian of great experience.

The book contains a unique collection of images, many in black and white but also a series of very rare colour shots, the majority by Franco Villani, a great reporter long associated with the Prancing Horse. An album allowing us to relive one of the greatest sporting stories of all time.

Ferrari by Zagato

1919 was the year in which Ferrari began driving racing cars and Zagato founded his couchworks, and from that moment their paths were to cross on several occasion. Every time Zagato got his hands on a Ferrari chassis, even without the official blessing of Maranello, he succeeded in building a beautiful car.
Even today these "Ferrari by Zagato" are shrouded in a certain air of mistery - not even the coachworks possessed documentation.

This book has bridged the gap.

Ferrari 70 ans

Découvrez l'évolution de la marque au travers de portraits détaillés de ses modèles les plus iconiques depuis la 212 jusqu'à La Ferrari en passant par les légendaires 250, 275, Daytona, 512BB, 288 GTO, sans oublier les "supercars" comme la F40, la F50 et l'Enzo...

Ferrari 70 Ans soulève le capot d'une histoire riche en rebondissements, depuis les débuts de la carrière d'Enzo Ferrari chez Alfa Romeo à la marque mondialement connue qui règne sur le coeur des inconditionnels comme des moins avertis.
En plus d'une histoire très vivante de la firme de Maranello, cet ouvrage apporte un regard de connaisseur sur les voitures de la marque en privilégiant quelques modèles particulièrement emblématiques, issus des plus grandes collections américaines et photographiés comme des stars.

Ce n'est pas un hasard si ses modèles les plus conquérants vont porter très tôt le nom "America". Il est judicieux de s'en souvenir aujourd'hui à l'heure d'un anniversaire aussi important et Ferrari 70 Ans retrace avec talent ces liens décisifs entre les deux rivages de l'Atlantique.
