1989 hardback looking into the history of speed and distance record breaking, written by the undoubted authority on the subject, David Tremayne.
There is a large section on Project Thrust which took the Land Speed Record in 1983 with Richard Noble at the wheel (the project leader of the later SSC supersonic record breaker and the current Bloodhound 1000mph project)
128 large pages, lots of great photos of Breedlove, Arfons etc, also covers speed record set in F1 and other kinds of motor racing.
Fine condition, fine jacket.
