by Pete Lyons
The first complete historical account of
the grand, glorious Canadian-American Challenge Cup series for
ultra-powerful "unlimited" sports-racing cars from
1966 through 1974. Pete covered most of the races for
Autosport, and his 268-page book, published by MBI in 1995,
puts the whole story together. In 100,000 words he recounts all
nine years and 71 races in detail, describes the significant
cars, and profiles every Can-Am Champion. Included are complete
grids and results for every event, as well as 305 color and
monochrome photos. Winner of the Motor Press Guild's Dean
Batchelor Award.

Written in 1991 and published by
Publications International, this book details Jaguar's history
with an emphasis on the overtly sporting cats. Pete Lyons puts
you behind the wheel as only he can do. The book also is the
saga of Jaguar's founder, William Lyons (no relation), who
began his new car line in the 1920s. This is a story of
romance, power and pure sports car enthusiasm.

Written in 1989 and published by
Publications International, this book does three things well.
It traces the vehicles' histories. It chronicles the man who
created these vehicles. Plus, it puts you behind the wheel of
every important Ferrari road car. Add to that the rare factory
photographs and dozens of color portraits and this is a Ferrari
book not to be missed.
