A rare copy of Jim Clark Portrait of a Great Driver by Graham Gould pub
1968. Book is 204pp illus in b/w and is in very good condition with a
very good d/w. Jim Clark was arguably the best driver the world has
seen and certainly one of the most versatile. He died when he was just
33 but by then the Scottish farmer's lad had surpassed the Grand Prix
victory total of the legendary Juan Manuel Fangio. Even Fangio himself
said he was the best ever driver. Clark started 73 races and won 25. He
was World Champion in 1963 and 1965 and set Ford on its path to fame by
pushing the Cosworth DFV engine to victory on its first F1 outing. He
was also the first non-American to win Indianapolis 500. A great book
and a fitting tribute to one of the worlds best drivers.
