This lavish photographic book recalls the nostalgic heartland of motor racing in the 1960s. Formula 1 subjects feature, but Michael Cooper also covered sports, GT and saloon car racing, while his portraits of iconic 1960s drivers are among his best work. This book illustrates Michael's genius at capturing the moment and his ability to understand the subject or place in a way that transcends technical skill. Unlike today's rigidly controlled accreditation and access restrictions, Michael's busiest motor racing period coincided with the relatively easy working conditions and unfettered trackside access that so defines this era.
