Very well done pictorial collection, but don't expect much more. The photo captions give a very shallow insight and historical account of this great race car. Much of the meager text is a rehash of information already out there pertaining to the Chaparral's. True Can Am and Sport car race fans will find this book disappointing and lacking from any kind of technical or informational point of view.

Still, for the Can Am fan, whether hard core or those of casual interest, this book is a must have.

Beautiful Pictorial, mostly B&W, There is a nice Color Section, Not much Reading, But Is a good Book With tons of Pictures, As most Friedman books it is very well laid out.A must for any Chevy Fan!(Powered by Chevy!) and Any Texas roadrunner fan(Chaparral!)

I was one of the fortunates that got to see the Chaparrals race! I never forgot it and forty years later they look as modern as they did in the 1960s. Lots of neat photos, but unfortunately, none in color. Sigh. I don't know why so many motor books are chock full of B&W! I love these cars, so no matter. Still recommended!

Being a child of the sixties and growing up as a fan of sports car racing during that era, this book truly brings the personal side of Jim Hall and his Chaparrals to the fore-front. Jim Freidman does an exceptional job in his writing as well as candid photography of the racing team during that glorious period. With quotes from Hap Sharp, Phil Hill, Roger Penske, as well as scores of other great drivers, the reader becomes a part of racing history we will never see again.
Thank you Jim Hall for sharing your memories!
