Shadow: The Magnificent Machines of a Man of Mystery £75

You probably have to be a bit mad – and certainly very wealthy – to try and create your own private F1 team. This is the story of just such a person, American Don Nichols, who ran the Shadow racing team. The book is essentially a biography of Don, focusing on his time involved in racing. It includes exclusive interviews with Don prior to his death in 2017, one of his daughters and designer, Trevor Harris. Pete Lyons combines his own photo collection as well as those of Nichols and Harris, much of which hasn’t been seen in print before.
