More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
This book features fifteen one day and half-day drives through the landscape of one of the most varied regions in England. The national parks of the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales form the core of the book, but less visited areas such as the Eden Valley and the Forest of Bowland are also explored. All the routes have been chosen by Britain's best-known Formula One racing driver, Stirling Moss, and are described by Lakeland author, Colin Shelbourn. Alongside the description of the main routes is a wealth of information on things to see and do along the way, including picnic sites, view-points and even places to stop and take a walk. Stirling's favourite pubs, restaurants and places to visit are all featured, as well as his personal tips and advice on personal motoring. Each route is designed to offer the reader a relaxed and interesting drive and is accompanied by an easy-to-follow map, highlighting the features mentioned in the text and a gazetteer giving comprehensive information on the attractions to be found en route, including museums, famous houses, castles, gardens and visitor centres.

Sir Stirling's memories of the cars he's driven and the events he drove them in -- the nearest we've yet seen to a comprehensive Moss autobiography. All the anecdotes and stories we'd hope for are in there, Doug Nye assists in sorting out some of the obscure historical details, Rob Walker contributes some material, and there's excellent photography. More extracts from Stirling's diary wouldn't go amiss and the car-by-car rather than strictly chronological treatment leads to some repetition and fragmentation. It'd be nice to see a truly definitive book on Sir Stirling both in his racing career and afterwards, but in the meantime this is excellent.
