Kathryn Kramer
With the backdrop of World War II, Bugatti race car driver Alexander finds love and new levels of courage as he joins the effort to fight the Nazi occupation of France. Based on true events, the brave and selfless actions of the grand prize drivers supported the French resistance in bringing the War to an earlier close. Paul is putting the finishing touches on a script based on his novel.
Paul Ehrmann has led a life as exciting as any of his characters. Paul was born in Wahington D.C. His father – who was to become a noted academic – was then teaching the principles of government to Nazi prisoners of war held in Virginia, so that they might return to Germany to replace the tyranny of Hitler with democracy. Paul’s father and mother themselves escaped those nightmare years by walking across the Pyrenees to catch an America bound boat in Portugal.
From CARS YEAH: "Paul Ehrmann is an author whose latest book, Arc of Triumph, is emphatically a novel with automobiles at its beating heart: And it is the culmination of a passion for motorcars Paul has embraced throughout his life. While he’s worked for production companies as a script editor and a screenwriter, writing is Paul’s passion and he combines his talent with his love for the Bugatti marque. This is Paul’s first novel and the publisher is Coachbuilt Press...."
