this is a great book - excellent photography, tells the story well in photos. very dynamic. print quality could be better, a lot better, but unless you spend much time reviewing high quality print jobs this probably won't matter to you. certainly a good value.

This book is a wonderful book for those who weren't lucky or rich enough to have bought all the Autocourse books from the period. Amazing how many great photos there are and in color!!

This book is basically a photography book, and that's what it's supposed to be. As a photography book it's loaded with some great shots of cars, pilots and situations of the F1 circus in the 70's. If you want more text or facts, this is not the book for you.

This book is a must-have for every fan of yesteryear's Formula 1. Photos are of great quality and the texts summarize very well each season of the decade.

Reiner Schlegelmilch is one of the best photographers in F1 which he has been covering since the 1960s. One of his trademarks is that he gives this extremely technical sport a very human perspective. This is transparent in every driver portrait or scene shot from the track. The 1970s were a decade of aggressive technical development in F1 which led to some of the most spectacular (Lotus 72) and bizarre (Tyrrel 6-wheeler and Brabham fan car)cars ever. It was a decade of triumph and tragedy with the loss of some of the sport's best drivers like Jochen Rindt and Ronnie Peterson, and of course there was Niki Lauda's terrible fire accident at the Nuerburgring. Schlegelmilch covers all of this with insight and brilliance, focusing not only on the highlights and the stars, but the sport as as whole. The prints are superb, text and picture captions are concise but informative
