The Limit tells the enthralling story of Phil Hill -- a lowly California mechanic who defied all expectations to become the first American-born driver to win the Grand Prix Championship -- and, on the fiftieth anniversary of his triumph, brings to life a vanished world of glamour, valor and daring. With the pacing of a novel, Michael Cannell charts Hill's journey from dusty California lots into the ranks of a singular breed of men.
