Love, Loss and Drug Addiction – Mark Morey Launches a New Novel About a Two Time Champion and Winner of the First Formula One Race
Canberra, Australia (PRWEB UK) 5 July 2016 -- Author Mark Morey tells the story of Achille Varzi: one of the most successful sportsman of the 1930s; hero to his followers; worshipped by the women in his life; driven to succeed. A passionate affair, unbearable humiliation after one of his greatest victories, and nearly being killed in a freak accident all lead to a terrible drug addiction. Varzi was lucky to survive; eventually being rescued by his family and by his ever faithful Norma. Told partly through the eyes of Varzi and partly by fictional Italian-Australian journalist Paul Bassi, readers follow the many triumphs and tragedies of Varzi's life: his downfall when at the height of his success during the golden era of motor racing, his recovery, his marriage, and his return to racing once more, winning the first-ever Formula One race.
The Last Great Race is a fictionalised account of a real-life story that seems too incredible to be true, only it is.
What They Are Saying About The Last Great Race
It has a wonderful cast of characters, array of nationalities, wonderful places and the cars are so sensual. Even a non-racing enthusiast can follow the action and get caught up in it. Bravo! – Rhonda Swayda. Author.
I recommend The Last Great Race for anyone looking for a great book, regardless of their feelings about car sports, because this book is SO MUCH MORE than that – Liz Gavin. Author.
This novel is perfect for fans of Formula One but also for those who love a well-written romance. From the story of Varzi you can learn to never give up, fighting to achieve your dreams – Veronica Marzini. Reviewer.
