Limit Author: Michael Cannell

ISBN: 9781848872233 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 336 Published: 1 December 2011 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 23.5 x 15.5 x 2.6 Description: A glittering account of Formula One's most thrilling and fatal era, culminating in the explosive championship battle of the 1961 Grand Prix.

10 September 1961: at the boomerang-shaped racetrack at Monza, in northern Italy, half a dozen teams are preparing for the Italian Grand Prix. It is the biggest race anyone can remember. Phil Hill - the first American to break into the top ranks of European racing - and his Ferrari teammate, Count Wolfgang von Trips - a German nobleman with a movie-star manner - face each another in a race that will decide the winner of the Formula One drivers' championship. By the day's end, one man will clinch that prize. The other will perish face down on the track.

The Limit is a vivid and atmospheric recreation of a lost world of seductive glamour and ever-present danger. Michael Cannell tells a moving and unforgettable tale of high speed and burning rivalry - and of young lives lived in the shadow of oblivion.
