It was in the twenties and thirties one of the most brilliant expressions of Italian motorcycle racing. The sporting life and not of Benelli is told with passion by the author who has recovered after years of painstaking and meticulous research, which has become gradually more and more engaging, articles in newspapers and magazines, documents, yellowed photographs, testimonies buried in the memory of fellow team or opponents, mechanics, friends, spectators, making resurface the joys and sorrows, emotions and episodes, sometimes strangers. His beginnings, the maturing of the class, the sequence always longer than the victories, the disappointments are relived by tracing with beautiful figure effectiveness of Tonino. A valuable book for exhibition quality, richness of content, details of the times and the descriptions of all the races that he played. The book is by its nature aimed at a specific group of readers, competent and skilled, but also to those who want to remember or to learn more; as well as to those who, born several years after the era of the famous actors and millionaires, do not know that it existed another motorcycle in which the pilots were simple people, and run into a sport bike was less technology, but more romantic, and perhaps more authentic. A book that is not only the biography of sport and human Tonino Benelli, but in some ways it is also the history of the Italian motorcycle manufacturer that far.
