Written with Carroll Shelby’s full collaboration and with a foreword by Edsel B. Ford II, the great-grandson of Henry Ford,\u00a0this is the definitive record of America’s preeminent twentieth century sports car builder and racer\u2014now in\u00a0paperback.<\/p>\n

It was motoring author Rinsey Mills’ passion for AC cars and motorsports history that led to his first meeting with Carroll Shelby. His suggestion that they should collaborate in order to create an accurate record of Shelby’s life and achievements at first was rebuffed but later taken up with enthusiasm. This authorized biography is the result.<\/p>\n

Carroll Shelby: The Authorized Biography was a long time in the making, as Mills left no stone unturned in his quest to produce the complete study of Shelby’s remarkable life. He carried out extensive research and conducted numerous interviews, fully capturing the narrative of Carroll Shelby within and outside of the automotive racing world, including his:<\/p>\n

Fascinating photographs from Shelby’s personal collection complete a book whose original hardcover edition was published mere weeks before his passing, making Carroll Shelby: The Authorized Biographya magnificent and lasting tribute to one of the greatest automotive figures of the twentieth century.<\/p>\n
