This handsome book presents 400 photographs from the incredible work of the late Louis Klemantaski, one of the most celebrated, versatile and famous motor racing photographers. From the mid-1930s - when he photographed the great and the good at Brooklands, Donington, hillclimbs and even some continental Grands Prix - to the gradual recovery post-war and his incredible 1950s Mille Miglia rides with Aston Martin and Ferrari, 'Klem' was in the thick of it. The book is structured chronologically, with chapters devoted to periods of Klemantaski's work, accompanied by insightful commentary by the author.
