Two limited Publisher’s Editions of Luca Dal Monte’s “Enzo Ferrari: Power, Politics, and the Making of an Automotive Empire” are available now from David Bull Publishing. Not coincidentally they are issued as the automotive and auto racing worlds await (dread?) the December debut of Michael Mann’s film, “Ferrari.” The original book, published in 2018, is currently sold out. However, David Bull Publishing is also offering the standard book within a limited-edition designer slipcase. A Standard Edition with designer slipcase is also available.

“The Enzo Ferrari I knew as boss, friend, and opponent, returns vividly to life in these pages,” said Mario Andretti, “along with a wealth of new facts and details I never could have imagined.”

Based on the vigorous life of Enzo Ferrari, author – and Ferrari insider – Dal Monte uncovers an abundance of new facts about Ferrari’s origins, ambition, business practices, and private life. The book revisits all the highlights of Ferrari’s rise to greatness: his driving career in the 1920s, his management of racing teams for Alfa Romeo in the 1930s, the launch of his own company and team in the late 1940s, and his unprecedented successes building cars for the road and racetrack in the following decades.

“Enzo Ferrari” also examines some of the hidden aspects of his career, including his political dealing with Italy’s Fascist government, Allied occupiers, and Communist leaders. And it lays bare the internal politics of the Ferrari company and team, whose leader manipulated employees, drivers, competitors and the media with a temperamental mixture of brute force, paranoia, guile and charm.

Each book is bound in genuine Schedoni Italian red leather. A leather supplier for Ferrari, Schedoni has a history providing Ferrari with custom Italian leather luggage kits for nearly every Ferrari model for the past 46 years.
