After Il motorismo storico ferrarese, another editorial effort and portrait, full of photos and anecdotes, of Ferrara's motoring and sporting history.
His great passion for historic cars and above all for his city led Marco Nonato to write a new adventure on the Turolla family, which in the post-war period created an important mechanical workshop from which racing cars made the history of local motoring and beyond.
The Officina Meccanica of the Turolla brothers is universally recognised as a workshop for the preparation and assembly of sports cars. A meeting place for the drivers of the Scuderia San Giorgio, and a highly reliable facility thanks to its test bench.
The author wants to give readers stories, anecdotes and characters who have managed to leave an indelible mark on the history of general and local motor racing with their genius.
Ettore Bugatti arrived in Ferrara, and here Giovanni Savonuzzi was born, Lamborghini, the Caniato brothers who founded the Scuderia with Ferrari, Dal Buono, a brilliant inventor, the Turolla brothers, the Morelli, Cicognani and Mares coachbuilders, and many other craftsmen who invented and built cars.
The text is enriched by a lavish photographic collection of period images, articles and documents of various kinds.
