About the Book

Die leider unrühmliche Geschichte dieses sehr schönen Rennwagens während seines Auftritts beim 24-Stunden-Rennen von Le Mans 1999, brachte es einigermaßen vorhersehbar mit sich, daß dem Autor keinerlei Unterstützung seitens des Fahrzeug-Herstellers zuteil werden konnte. Doch auch andere potentielle externe Quellen, wie zum Beispiel die damals verantwortlichen Personen, die zuständigen Motorsport-Verbände und selbst die Hersteller der entsprechenden Modellautos, zeigten durchwegs nur eisiges Schweigen. Während der mehr als fünf Jahre dauernden Recherchen zu diesem Buch, hat sich der Autor Martin Mahle schließlich ohne jegliche Unterstützung daran gemacht, alles über diesen Wagen zusammenzutragen, was zu finden war. Entstanden ist ein sehr reichlich, ausnahmslos farbig bebildertes Werk, welches die Entstehungsgeschichte, den Auftritt in Le Mans, die Gründe für sein Scheitern und das schnelle Verschwinden dieses einmaligen Le Mans Grand Touring Protoyp-Rennwagens eindrucksvoll dokumentiert. Der Buch-Text ist zweisprachig, Deutsch und Englisch. 207 Farbaufnahmen. The unfortunately inglorious history of this very beautiful race car during his performance at the Le Mans 24-hour race in 1999 made it quite foreseeable that the author would not be supported by the vehicle's manufacturer. However, other potential external sources, such as the people responsible at the time, the responsible motorsport associations, and even the manufacturers of the relevant model cars, showed only a deafening silence, too. In the course of more than five years of research into his reference book, the author Martin Mahle has finally gathered all available information, without any support. The final result is a richly illustrated work, which impressively documents the genesis, the appearance at Le Mans, the reasons for its failure and the rapid disappearance of this unique Le Mans Grand Touring Prototype racing car. The book's text is bilingual, English and German. 207 color images.
About the Author: Der Autor hat die Spionage-Thriller "40", "Beth Nahrin", "Geheimnisvolles schwarzes Gold" (auch in Englisch als "Mysterious black Gold" erhältlich), "Neujahr", "Sturm Schatten" und "GENESIS" veröffentlicht. Darüber hinaus verfasste er das militär-historische Fachbuch "Der allein gelassene Kommandeur", auch in Englisch erhältlich als "The Lonesome Commander", in welchem er sich mit der persönlichen Geschichte eines im Falkland-Krieg von 1982 eingesetzten britischen Generals auseinandersetzt. Zur Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft 2014 erschien sein mathematisch-stochastisches Statistik-Fachbuch "Fußball ist Zufall!", in welchem er sich humorig, aber durchaus ernst gemeint, mit dem Einfluß des Zufalls auf Fußballspiele beziehungsweise Fußballwetten auseinandersetzt. 2016 erschien die zweite Auflage. Sein Fachbuch "Das Phantom - Die Bodensee-Autobahn A98" beschreibt die Geschichte einer zwar nie gebauten, aber nach wie vor dringender denn je benötigten Autobahn am deutschen Bodensee-Ufer. Außerdem publizierte er das zweisprachige (Deutsch/Englisch) Fachbuch "Diamond T TEXACO Tanker Doodlebug", in welchem die Geschichte eines aerodynamisch speziell gestalteten US-Tank-Lastwagens aus den 1930er-Jahren erzählt wird. Alle Bücher sind als Papier-Ausgabe und eBook erhältlich, "Beth Nahrin" darüber hinaus auch als Hörbuch. The author has published the espionage thrillers "40", "Beth Nahrin", "Geheimnisvolles schwarzes Gold" (also available in English as "Mysterious black Gold"), "Neujahr", "Sturm Schatten" and "GENESIS". His military history book "The Lonesome Commander" (also available in German as "Der allein gelassene Kommandeur") tells the story of a British Army brigadier in the Falklands War of 1982. Shortly after the 2014 Football World Cup in Brazil, his stochastic reference book "Fußball ist Zufall!" was published - spiced with a great portion of humor. In 2016 the second edition was published. His reference book "Das Phantom - Die Bodensee-Autobahn A98" reflects the history of a planned but never built motorway on the German side of the Lake of Constance, showing that today it is more necessary than ever. His bilingual (English and German) reference book "Diamond T TEXACO Tanker Doodlebug" describes a stylish aerodynamic US-tanker-truck from the 1930s. All books are available in print and eBook-format, "Beth Nahrin" as audio book, too.
