A Passion For Speed: The Life And Times Of George Abecassis

Description

I’ve got this book lying around that I’ve been meaning to part with. It’s A Passion For Speed: The Life And Times Of George Abecassis — a detailed look at his life as a racer, his time serving with the RAF during WWII, and his work with John Heath and the HWM team starting in 1946. Over 500 images spread across 412 pages, so it’s not just text — you can really see the history come to life. The book was written by George’s son, David Abecassis, and published by PJ Publishing in 2010. It’s in great shape and has a signature from the author. I’ve got it priced at £126, though I’ll take offers if you’re interested. It’s based in Ferryhill, County Durham, UK. I’m just passing it on to someone who might actually want to read it — not selling it to anyone who’s just looking for a quick fix.
