Easy to get a copy, and I highly suggest it. A great insight to one of the periods multi-best

Great race car engineer
Great test driver
Great race driver
Competent Writer
Maybe not such a good spouse

Why I paid the premium on this book is because the book was first published in 1975.
Unfortunately we lost Mark in Aug of 1975.
A first edition is rare
A Mark Donohue sighed fist edition is very rare.

You are right it is very rare. If I remember correctly, the retailer that I bought it from said that there were only 50 signed copies ! I can't verify that number, but I think it is correct. After all, that was over 40 years ago!
