A primer of romance has always surrounded the fascinating world of racing.
This attraction is not remained immune to a considerable array of known and unknown men who, between the 1930s and 1960s, Mets have lavished enthusiasm and ingenuity by building and taking part, often in the first person, in competitions reserved for cars of category "Sport".
These characters who built their house in sports cars, assembling and processing from car engines standard on home-built chassis, covered by reading body, despite having written an important page in Italian automotive history, is today unknown to the general public line.
The automotive universe, too often referred to "minor" dedicated the volume The "Sport" and its craftsmen 1937-1965, operates only in landscape editorial that recounts in detail the competitive events and preparatory as Geometric Design, Gold Wing, Allemano, Bandini, Biondetti, Dagrada, De Santis, Ermini, Fa, Giannini, Giordano, Pagani, Pajic, Serenissima, Siata, Volpini and many others; some of them intended to acquire an industrial size as Abarth, De Tomaso, Nardi, Stanguellini and Zagato.
A work of great historical value that gathers a rich photographic documentation is absolutely unheard of, that took years of careful research by the authors, animated by a passion and a tenacity uncommon.
The book is divided into two large sections: the first part devoted to agonistic Chronicle of Italian Championships Sport from 1937 to 1965, complemented by comprehensive charts broken down by classes.
The second part, organized in alphabetical order, tells in detail the technical and human vicissitudes of that preparatory races arose in those years.
