Description

The Last of the Silver Arrows. After their domination in the thirties Mercedes-Benz returned for 1954-55 Seasons & did it all over again. This is the story of that car, the team, plenty of old & familiar faces & some new ones. Fangio was brought in to lead the assault with Kling & Herrmann for the first year & with Moss for 1955. This was a total commitment by Mercedes as they took on & did the same in Sports Car racing at LeMans, Millie Miglia & elsewhere, but here we concentrate on Grand Prix. The book is as comprehensive as is possible running to well over 300 large format pages of text photo & pull out drawings. They came, They conquered, They Left.
