You don’t even have to be a lover of Formula 1 racing or race cars to enjoy this, you just need to be a lover of good stories and good writing. The Limit: Life and Death on the 1961 grand Prix Circuit reads like a novel and tells the story of Phil Hill who rose from relative obscurity to become a record breaker– the first American-born driver to win the Formula 1 World Drivers’ Championship.
