See the golden age of racing through hundreds of famed motorsports photographer Louis Klemantaski's greatest images, including many that have never been previously published. This special limited edition, number 93 of only 100 printed, is signed and numbered by the author and comes in a sturdy slipcase.
The next best thing to attending a race in person is reliving it through high-quality photography. Most images merely document the event--rare are those photographs that capture the event. These are the photos that fans turn to again and again. Louis Klemantaski inserted himself into the action - standing just off-course in a corner, roaming the paddock and infield, or riding shotgun in a Mille Miglia race car. In the process, he captured some of the most iconic images in motorsports.
Louis Klemantaski is one of history's greatest motorsports photographers. The immediacy and excitement his images evoke are unsurpassed. He worked during what is often considered racing's golden era, from the late 1930s through the early 1970s, while the sport was still the province of passion and daring, before huge budgets and massive sponsorship forever changed its tenor. His subjects spanned road racing, Grand Prix, and F1 competition.
Klemantaski: Master Motorsports Photographer is the only book devoted to the photographer's full body of work. Hundreds of the best Klemantaski images have been collected to provide the only opportunity to own and enjoy his key work in a single volume. No racing or photography fan will want to miss this book!
