Among the many holdings of the Ludvigsen Library were the works of Rodolfo Mailander, who photographed races, motor shows, new-car introduction and other events in Europe from 1950 through 1955. This handsome portrait-format book presents Mailander''s photography, selected and with commentary by Karl Ludvigsen, of Porsche cars and people through these years. Spread over 250 pages are some 300 images taken by a man who was intimately involved with this world. By far the majority of these photographs have never before been published. Ludvigsen provides a knowledgeable and entertaining commentary on each, together with a year-by-year overview of the activities of Porsche during these exciting early years. The early Fifties were the dramatic formative years of Porsche, which was founded as a sports-car producer in 1948. The first-ever Porsche car scored a race victory that same year. Porsche''s first effort at Le Mans in 1951 brought a class victory, and Le Mans was destined to remain a major target for Porsche''s racers in the future. With the arrival of the fabled 550 Spyders in 1953 Porsche scored class victories on all continents with such drivers as Stirling Moss, Hans Herrmann and Richard von Frankenberg. As well, during these years Porsche developed and expanded its range of sports cars for the road. Included in the book are: * Exciting and evocative scenes from the great sports-car races, rallies, road races and hillclimbs: Monza, Berne, the Nürburgring, the Mille Miglia, Monte Carlo, Reims and others. * Behind-the-scenes views of the Porsche factory and the building of these great cars. * The Porsche road cars in their environment and at the great Salons of Paris, Turin and Geneva. * Porsche people, including Ferry Porsche, his engineers and his drivers.

Karl Ludvigsen, born in 1934 in the USA and one of the greats in automobile history, opens his archives. In more than 50 years as a motor journalist, writer of books and automobile historian he accumulated comprehensive knowledge and met all the prominent figures of the automobile's golden age. In this book we meet Stirling Moss, Jackie Stewart, Juan Manuel Fangio, Bruce McLaren, Emerson Fittipaldi, Dan Gurney and many more. A look in "Ludvigsens rear-view mirror" takes us back to times, when cars definitely had combustion engines, when motor races were life and death struggles and groundbreaking successes were made in the fields of safety, design and technology.

"Porsche: Excellence Was Expected explores the history of the Porsche company, its cars, and its motor racing heritage from its beginning in 1948 through its sixty years as an independent family-owned car company to its continued success in 2019 under the auspices of the Volkswagen Group. Author Karl Ludvigsen goes behind the scenes to explore the events that eventually plunged Porsche into the hands of Volkswagen. And he outlines in detail just how and why, after the final schism from the Porsche/Piech dynasty in 2012, Porsche has continued to be Porsche. New material for the 2019 edition includes the continuing evolution of the iconic Porsche 911, allocating five chapters to dissecting the design and engineering of the Type 991 production cars and GT racers. He also looks at the continuing market success of the Cayenne, Cayman, Macan and Panamera. Competition coverage is expanded to include the exotic 918 hybrid and the winning 919 Hybrid LMP1 racer. A final chapter on Porsche's high-performance, all-electric Taycan production car points the way to the iconic sports-car maker's future."--Provided by publisher.
