There are many ways in sport to become a legend. Tazio Nuvolari took the hardest route to glory, fame and the unconditional affection of his contemporaries and even those who never knew him.
His name, in fact, is linked to a peculiar and indissoluble interweaving of talent, determination, passion and risk with physical suffering and spiritual pain.
There are countless victories that have made Nuvolari famous: among them those in the Mille Miglia, or in the Vanderbilt Cup or in the famous Nürburgring, where like a David against a squadron of German Goliaths he achieved a triumph that on paper was impossible.
But his sorrows were many: the accidents, the injuries, the illness; the mourning for colleagues and friends who died and the atrocious loss of his two beloved children.
In this book, the "flying Mantuan" is narrated with genuine love by those who knew how to capture him as a man of his century and as a sportsman eternalized by his exploits.
