'Collage is a unique record of an era and a driver that changed the nature of Formula One as we know it.' – Top Gear, BBC
'This wonderful book, which is beautifully presented, is a great tribute to Sir Jackie Stewart. As a proud Scot, Jackie Stewart survived at a time when few of the top Grand Prix drivers lived beyond the sport. This book is a trip down memory lane in the most vivid and explicit fashion.' – His Serene Highness II, Sovereign Prince of Monaco
A unique account of the incredible racing career of Sir Jackie Stewart told through the unseen archive of the Stewart family albums and Sir Jackie's own in-depth commentary.
Collage begins with Sir Jackie's early sports car and Formula Three races and culminates in his retirement after winning a third world championship in 1973.'These pages offer glimpses of a life that ended for me over three decades ago, a life that contained loss and sadness as well as the euphoria of success.' - Sir Jackie Stewart
A collation of the original Stewart Grand Prix family albums, Collage has been assembled by Sir Jackie Stewart and is interwoven with his own personal stories and recollections to create a dramatic re-telling of a 'rocket ship ride' career.
Originally compiled by Sir Jackie's wife, Lady Helen Stewart, the Stewart Grand Prix albums began in the early Sixties with a few press cuttings. They grew to 17 volumes that come to peak in 1973.
'This incredible archive, which eventually ran to 17 volumes, is now one of our family's most treasured possessions. That it exists at all is down to Helen. I was merely the sportsman doing his job.' - Sir Jackie Stewart
This utterly unique Grand Prix Album not only tells the personal story of a truly remarkable sportsman, but also opens up a fascinating new window onto the halcyon days of Formula One.
Collage is Jackie Stewart's historic document of a pivotal era in motorsport and a luxurious, hand-crafted volume to be treasured in its own right. Strictly limited to 1,500 copies worldwide.
Jackie Stewart's 208-page album is superbly reproduced with an English printer founded in 1845. Printed on premium, heavyweight, uncoated art paper, the book's pages are then bound by hand at an artisan bookbindery in Scotland.'Stewart's honesty brilliantly matches the scrambled together page layouts, to create a real insight into life as an F1 driver in the 1960s and 1970s.' - ESPN
