Enzo Ferrari began working with automobiles in 1918, first as a tester, then as a driver and eventually as team manager. But it was only in 1947, with the 125S, that his career as an automaker began, but in the space of only a few years he would have brought his name to the attention of the world, making it one of the most important in the history of the automobile. Under his guidance and with his inspiration, the Maranello Company has produced innumerable masterpieces that have always inflamed the hearts of enthusiasts and whetted the appetites of collectors. And his spiritual inheritance was fully carried on by those who succeeded him in leading Ferrari, which has continued to build vehicles exactly the way the "Old Man" would have wanted. This is an innovative editorial concept made by a 40-pages little book that retraces the fundamental stages of the evolution of the "Prancing Horse", and a folded book with 20 sheets bringing together the 40 most representative Ferrari. In each page the text, accompanied by accurate rendering and detailed technical information, will lead the reader through time, in a fascinating journey amidst noise, curiosities, anecdotes and accounts. AUTHOR: Saverio Villa was drawn since childhood to automobiles and fascinated by their technology, and he made a career of this passion, firstly as a contributor to Auto, Auto Tecnica and Automobilismo, before joining the staff of Starter and, later, the weekly Auto Oggi, where he worked his way up to become editor. Today he contributes to numerous publications, including Corriere della Sera, Auto and Autosprint, as well as being editorial director of Yellow TV, the web weekly Autorama, the third longest-running Italian title in the field, and of the press agency Asapress. He has already written several books for Edizioni White Star and collaborates with De Agostini Editore on partworks, always linked to motoring. Colour photographs
