Mercedes-Benz 300SLR: The Fabulous 1955 World-Champion Sports-Racer (Ludvigsen Library) (Ludvigsen Library Series) Paperback – Illustrated, 3 Oct. 2004

As with all the works by the author lots of well researched information. Classic car and worth the purchase

Any book by Ludvigsen is worth adding to ones library

Wow. What a fantastic collection of photos and documentation by Ludvigsen. Starts with the prototype design of the 300SLR and moves to a couple of blueprints of the chassis and general layout. Very informative with enough detail to enjoy the beauty and ingenuity of the Mercedes Benz engineers. Moves onto some impressive photos of the chassis, and technical points of the 300SLR, including the amazing straight 8 engine, and finishes with period action photos (some taken by Rudy Mailander) of the car being raced by Moss/Kling/Fangio and other drivers including the unfortunate Levegh car.Photos are in black and white. Fans of the Uhlenhaut 300SLR coupe will not be disappointed, as it is covered in minor detail too.A nice compliment to this is the "Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix W196" book written/published by the same author/group.

Das Buch ist sehr informativ!Vor allem die zahlreichen Photos in sehr guter Qualität haben mich überzeugt.Der MB 300SLR ist ein wirklich beeindruckendes Automobil.

Ludvigsen氏による微に入り細に入った写真集は300SLRマニアにとっては宝物になりました。ドイツ人の最高傑作とも言うべきこの車が、手に取るように見ることができたのです。歴史の上での一瞬の人類の（のが多いですが）宝物です。

This book is very well written and, gives the reader all the information; that they could ask for concerning this racing car.

Being a modeler, this picture book gives me details I had not seen before.
