Big book which starts off good covering what you would expect about the great
driver's background & racing.
But then wanders on about his corporate after-race career life to the point of
sounding like a big plug for Rolex, Elf fuels, Ford & so on
Still good, but not a pure driver's book.
Bringing me up to date & not yet fully read:

Hot off the printing press this one almost only came out this week after a long delay
& so far is by far my favourite book.
For the first time a full insight into the first Group B car ever built & the last & greatest
RWD car ever to win the world championship for makes in rally.
