[Books] Shadow Cars F1 and Can Am book

[sublimao]

I did a deep research and found none book about Shadow Cars.
Do you think is worth to publish one ?
I am able to contact Patrese and Zorzi for their inputs.
Shadow racing team was an icon in the seventies thanks overall to his
founder and tech designer.
Greetings to all

Always good to get a work out on a subject not previously published but it's a big task, and getting a publisher interested in a specialist work is difficult. Production costs are high and therefore so, accordingly, is the selling price particularly as it would almost certainly be a lowish print run. Oh, and for this type of book the research is very time consuming, has to be very thorough and the outcome very accurate!

Shadow Can-Am is covered in this book by the designer, Peter Bryant.

HERE

And then there is Tony Southgate's biography HERE

These would cover off a lot of the story of Shadow.

The earlier Can-Am days would be described in Pete Lyons' various books

Yep, you are right; my response was more a general one in respect of any specialised book. Apologies, if I misled.

John, you were absolutely on the money with your comments. I have looked at various book projects but getting the financial side to make sense is the biggest challenge.

You could probably write a good spy thriller novel about the Shadow/Arrows affair.

I wish now I can remember where and when I saw this, but it was recent. I think it was an interview or something talking to an author about a recently released book and they mentioned something about the whole Shadow saga being their next project they were working on. Maybe it was Gordon Kirby. Not sure.
