| 520 | |a This reprint of the long out-of-print 1968 classic covers seven decades of Ford's pioneering and illustrious activities in auto racing. As author Leo Levine writes, "No other American manufacturer has been more involved with the sport. In many respects, the competition history of Ford parallels the progress of auto racing in this country.' m 520 8 From Henry Ford's own victory at the October 1901 Detroit Driving Club race to the 1967 LeMans triumph of A.J. Foyt and Dan Gurney, this first volume of Ford: The Dust and The Glory (the second volume will cover 1968 - 2000) tells the inside story of Ford's spectacular racing accomplishments. m 520 8 Ford: The Dust and The Glory features the stories - and numerous photographs - of the great races, the great cars, and the legendary personalities (both the famous drivers and those "behind the scenes') associated with Ford and its great competitors of the era. In addition to the dramatic moments of glory and tragedy, Levine chronicles the day-to-day grind behind those moments - the frantic but disciplined hours at the drawing board, in the workshops, on the proving grounds, and in the pits. | ||
