Review by Pete Vack
Roy P. Smith is no slouch when it comes to writing. He’s just added his fifth major work within a seven year span…that’s an incredible amount of research and writing, made even more difficult as he is a Brit and takes on French subjects. [He even has time to write for VeloceToday, thank goodness!].
In a sense, with these five books, he is dipping from the same well. But the well is both deep and so far unexplored by the English speaking world. His first three books were Alpine & Renault, the development of the revolutionary Turbo F1 car published in2008, followed by Alpine & Renault, the sports prototypes Volumes One and Two in 2010; by 2013 his take on the history of Gordini, a true racing legend was published. Late in 2013 his latest, Alpine Renault, the fabulous berlinettes was completed and will no doubt prove to be the most popular of all.
