Product Description
Book Description
This is the complete, dramatic story of Donald Campbell's heroic attempts to take the world water-speed record past 300 mph and how the wreck of his jet-boat Bluebird was recovered from Coniston Water more than 34 years later. It includes the entire text of 'With Campbell at Coniston' - the classic account by Arthur Knowles of the preparations and the final tragic attempt when success seemed within Campbell's grasp. New material has been added, including an eye-witness description by co-author Graham Beech of the recovery operation that took place in March 2001.
