A brief excerpt from “Cuban Grand Prix 1957”
When, in 1957, Robert Pauley wanted to go to Cuba “…to get a chance to see his heroes”, he may well have added “before it was too late,” for he would bear witness to the end of a very great era of motor racing. [Read more…] about 1957: When Heroes Raced

Dear Joel,
Well, you did good this time. We might add that you almost always do good. I am constantly referring to your Testa Rossa book and the ARCA history, and I don’t even have copy of your most appreciated book, American Road Racing 1948-1950 but there is no doubt I’ll be getting one soon.
This time even Willem Oosthoek calls your latest book like it is. “Joel Finn’s Caribbean Capers is comprehensive, mostly well-researched and full of many interesting images of the Cuban races. I doubt another book on the subject of the Cuban Grand Prix will ever be written, since there just isn’t anything more to report than is in this book.”
