Since 1930, more than a dozen of books have been dedicated to Tazio Nuvolari, the legendary driver considered the greatest of all times

Sometimes the years aren't mentioned so one must assume that everything is chronological There's nothing about the man other than his racing exploits. What he did from 19Great photos, thin narrative.
