A victory of heart over reason was what they called his greatest success, the 1956 Mille Miglia win and it is to the beat of his heart that most of his brief existence is inexorably linked. Alife which, for the first time, has been reconstructed after vast detailed research and is now a new book, published simultaneously by Giorgio Nada Editore in two versions, Italian and English.The author is Cesare De Agosini, one of the best-known motor sport writers, who has also given us the biographies of Tazio Nuvolari, Gilles Villeneuve and Clay Regazzoni, three authentic best sellers.

He digs deep into the soul of the man, to enable the reader to participate not only in the facts but also the feelings, the passions, the emotions of this young man.
