"Who was faster, Steve McQueen or Paul Newman? Dick Barbour, a driver who raced with and against both, gives the nod to McQueen. He says that while McQueen was "a natural," Newman was "methodical." This is but one of many illuminating insights in "Winning: The Racing Life of Paul Newman," a timely new book about the legendary actor who died last year at 83."

Synopsis
Winner of International Automotive Media Gold Award 2010 For all his fame as one of Hollywood's great actors, a world-class humanitarian, and the proprietor of a natural food empire, the late Paul Newman had another intriguing facet that was less known and perhaps closer to his heart than all the rest of his well-chronicled life. He was an avid, successful and well respected car racer and team owner. This book tells that story--from Newman's racing career, begun in earnest at an age when many race car drivers contemplate retirement; to the partnership he formed in 1983 with Chicago racing entrepreneur and team owner Carl Haas; to the impressive stable of automobiles he owned, from the Porsches and Ferraris to quirkier modified VWs and Volvos. This is the tale of a life full of passion and skill, of someone who entered the 24 Hours of Daytona at the age of 70 and made his last professional race outing at 82; whose roster of drivers for Newman/Hass reads as a who's who of open wheel racing; and whose interest in cars extended from the likely suspects to old trucks and new hybrids. And then there's the charming pal who, when the incorrigible prankster Robert Redford had a miserably wrecked Ferrari dropped at his front door, returned the favor by having the car, crushed into a cube, delivered to Redford's living room. The anecdotes, the races, the cars--all are here, adding up to what for many would be a full life, but for Paul Newman was simply another side of a man of talent, conviction, and enduring spirit.

- _***n (37)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufItem was as described. The seller shipped the package very quickly. I received the package within the timeframe I was given. Outside packaging was not damaged in any way. Packing of the product and the product itself were also in great condition. I received what I ordered and the appearance of the item was just like the photo and was of high quality. Great value. I would do business with this seller again.

I think the shipping charge is appropriate because it carefully protects the merchandise. The order arrived before the delivery time. Excellent communication. I recommend this seller, especially to foreign buyers. The purchase is completely secure
- a***a (38)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book was mostly as described but was loosely packaged (bubble wrap was not secured around the book) so that the top end of the dust jacket on the front cover corner had an accordian-style tear about a half inch down the edge. Otherwise a good item and transaction.Airborne, The History of American Parachute Forces, Edwin P. Hoyt (HC/DJ 1979) (Nr. 267018276843)
