    The sticked in paper isn‘t what i expected,
    i know it is easier to sign a piece of paper than a book
    but a printed bounded in site always looks more high-grade...

    Christian, sorry that you are disappointed, but to ship 50 of these heavy books to Switzerland, and then to France and then back to England would have been prohibitively expensive and time consuming.

    Your books, especially your leather versions never can disappoint me,
    they are always stunning craftsmanship!

    I only think the sticked in paper isn‘t worthy the rest.

    But it is only a small detail and i can‘t wait that the postman rings... :)

    I hope you are not expecting another 'La Nascita' or 'A Postcard from Maranello'. These are less expensive. I hope yo won't be too disappointed.

    Made my preorder for the 250 LM book. Still in doubt whether to order the book on the 550/575.

    Big book, I get the pleasure to see it in the last event. Many pictures well know and others never seen before. The quality is high, precise and unimaginable with the cover engine.
    Congrats you got THE BOOK

    An incredible achievement! Really detailed coverage of a previously neglected period in racing history. This is a really good quality book. By that I mean that it's on good paper with good photo reproduction. If you have any interest in this period then this is a 'must have'.

    Any good books out there that can educate me on the 400 & 410 SuperAmerica & Superfeast series.

    Dyke Ridgley did one on the 410 SA in 1983. And Automobilia published one on The Superamerica & Superfast in 1996. Cavallino did many articles on the cars, so that's good (and recent) source.

    Are Cavalleria Books able to be purchased for $100 or less?
    I think that's something I may start collecting.

    Some issues are still available and easy to find. But many years ago when i was trying to complete my set some books were already scarce.
    It might be easier (and cheaper) to keep an eye open for complete sets offered at auctions.
    Like this set b.e.

    Based on this and all of the positive reviews at Autosport TNF, I too ordered a copy of this book. It certainly has not disappointed. I would advise any other North American buyers to consider buying it from the Chater's online book store, rather than directly from the publisher. Doing this saved me $50 (total cost of about $250, rather than about $300), plus I literally had the book the day after I ordered it, as they sent it out via DHL Express. Perhaps best of all, their packaging was truly exceptional so I received it in absolutely perfect condition.

    Especially no 5 (F40 LM) and no 16 (250GT California) will be very difficult to find, and to a lesser extent no 10 (Dino 206S). All in all it might be a better choice to get them as a full set, as you said.
