BROOKLANDS - A PICTORIAL HISTORY
GESCHREVEN DOOR / WRITTEN BY G.N. GEORGANO
1E DRUK / 1ST EDITION 1978

Gedurende 32 jaar was Brooklands de bakermat van auto- en motorraces in Engeland. Er ging geen week voorbij zonder dat er gebeurde op het circuit en de enthousiasteling wist dat hij het circuit altijd kon bezoeken zonder teleurgesteld te worden.
De atmosfeer van transport is in dit boek weergegeven aan de hand van 200 fascinerende foto's, voornamelijk geselecteerd uit de verzameling van het National Motor Museum door het Hoofd van de bibliotheek Nick Georgano.

For 32 years, Brooklands was the home of motor racing in Great Britain where a week never went by without something happening at the circuit, and the enthusiast knew he could visit there at any time without fear of disappointment.
The atmosphere of transport whether they be fully blown racing machines, every day saloons, motor cycles or even the occasional bus, mixed with the aeroplanes which used the interior of the track, has been fully captured in this book by the use of over 200 fascinating photographs, selected mainly from the vast collection of the National Motor Museum by the Museum's Head Librarian Nick Georgano.
