| "Hurst has managed
to portray brilliantly the atmosphere of endurance racing and
especially that particular era. For those of us whose only
contact with racing at the time was through Motor Sport, then
this brings it all to life most vividly." |

| "The photos
captured so much about the race...far more than the on track
photos ever do. The personality shots show the intensity so
well...and to have comments from the 'people involved' makes
it very 'first person.' |

congratulations on a superb effort." |

others to
really bring them to life...an excellent value." |
