Review :
Reviews of Joe Saward's The Grand Prix Saboteurs "Probably the best sports book published so far this year. It is a compelling tale that will appeal not just to racing enthusiasts but to sports fans in general who will appreciate that even after being lauded as sporting megastars, some sportsmen and women remain capable of contributing so much more." - Peter Sharkey, The Birmingham Post "A cracking story. A tale of derring-do and chivalry on the racetracks of yore, of romance against the glamorous backdrops of 1920s Paris and Monaco, and of heroism and tragedy behind the lines in World War Two. The Grand Prix Saboteurs is history, but it reads like a series of screenplays crammed with compelling characters." - Andrew Baker, Daily Telegraph "It's a great book, well written and the two main figures, Grover-Williams and Benoist are just what racing drivers should be. I think it would make a brilliant film." - James Allen, ITV "I could not put the book down, and having now finished it, I wish it had gone on longer." - Brad Spurgeon, International Herald Tribune "It may sound like fiction but the dramatic story related in this book is one of the most remarkable in motor racing history." - Autosport "The Grand Prix Saboteurs stands as a towering monument to those who chose to stand and fight, and, when their time came, to pay the ultimate price for their passionate belief in freedom." - David Tremayne, The Independent "A tale of heroism that accelerates relentlessly to its tragic conclusion." - Richard Williams, The Guardian "French-based British F1 writer Joe Saward's book on three motor racing stars of the 1920s and 30s, who worked together as British secret agents during World War II in occupied France, is a ripper." - John Connolly, The Australian "Saward has combined his formidable knowledge of GP racing together with a vast quantity of meticulous research and managed, with enviable deftness, to produce a thrilling and heartbreaking story. Anyone interested in the fascinating legend of the racing driver spies Benoist and Williams and Wimille, and in SOE in general, should buy this book." - Robert Ryan, author of "Early One Morning" "Written better than most novels, The Grand Prix Saboteurs is a magnificent piece of research and a cracking good read. Saward knows his subject inside out and the really great thing is that he shares his knowledge with the reader and makes the reader his companion." - Pitpass.com "Extreme circumstances bring out the true nature of individuals andthese two were revealed as men of huge integrity and quite astounding bravery. Saward brings them back to life with this book." - Mark Hughes, Autosport "A book I've massively enjoyed." - Peter Windsor, F1 Racing "It's not a motorsport book at all, in the strictest sense - racing is just one of many parts in its complex fabric - but it's one of the most compelling I've read for a while. A terrific piece of work." - Motorsport News UK
