  • Creating Scuderia Ferrari
    Sep 14 2024

    How did Enzo Ferrari create the greatest racing team in the history of the world?

    The "Scuderia Ferrari" Formula One team, the oldest and most successful racing team in the world. The team that would go on to compete in every single world championship since 1950.

    Was it luck?

    Was it Fate?

    Or was it a pre-arranged seating chart for a dinner celebration that would alter the entire racing world as we know it?

    I read an amazing book on the life of Enzo Ferrari published in 1991 titled,

    “Enzo Ferrari, The Man, The Cars, The Races” by Brock Yates.

    I thought I knew the entire story about Enzo Ferrari, but I discovered a crucial part of racing history in the incredible book by Brock Yates...

    "The time had come for me to see how far I could get by my own efforts." -Enzo Ferrari

  • The Babe Ruth Story, Creating the Legend of The Babe
    Sep 1 2024

    George Ruth went from nowhere to the top of the world.

    How did this youngster go from nothing to "The Babe?"

    From nothing - to one of the biggest sports legends of all time, and became maybe the most well-known athlete in the world - still to this day.

    With the help of the book, 'The Babe Ruth Story,' written by Babe Ruth, published in 1948.

    "Some scruffy kid who came from the humblest of beginnings, hung out as a six-year-old behind his father's bar; a big, badly flawed, swashbuckling palooka, who strides with great spirit — not just talent, but with a spirit of possibility and enjoyment of life across the American stage."
    - Bob Costas, Sports commentator and lifelong baseball fan

  • Claude Monet, and the Art Dealer Who Saved Impressionism
    Aug 24 2024

    I read every letter Claude Monet wrote to his art dealer, Paul Durand-Ruel.

    I was amazed to discover that without this incredibly talented salesman, determined visionary, heart-pounding risk-taker, and trusted friend, there might not be a Claude Monet as we know it.

    How Paul Durand-Ruel saved Claude Monet and the Impressionism painters of Europe in the 1880s.

    "Without Durand, we would have died of starvation, all of us the impressionists. We owe him everything,’

    ‘He persisted, persevered, he risked bankruptcy twenty times over to support us. The critics dragged us through the mud; but for him it was even worse! They used to write: these people are mad, but there is someone madder than them, the dealer who buys their work!" - Claude Monet
