Frankly Frankl: Life, Love, Luck & Automobiles by Andrew Frankl

Description

Nazis, Communists, Formula 1, Ferraris, the Cannonball Run — and a true love lost. Frankly Frankl is the rollicking memoir of Andrew Frankl, the veteran automotive journalist whose 75 years have been anything but ordinary.

Frankl’s story begins in a Europe overshadowed by totalitarianism and races through the golden age of motorsport: Formula 1 paddocks, Ferraris, the legendary Cannonball Run — all with the insider’s eye of a man who lived it. Along the way: brushes with fame, hard-won wisdom, and the love story that got away.

Available as a full-color hardcover and an audiobook rich with period sound effects — from revolution to racing, from Halle Berry to Bill Haley — this is a memoir for car lovers and adventure lovers alike. Funny, frank, and full of heart, Frankly Frankl is one man’s high-speed tour through the twentieth century. A must-read for gearheads, history buffs, and anyone who believes the best stories are lived at full throttle.
