Product Description
Book Description
This is the second reprint of the classic book about one of motor racing's greatest writers: Denis Sargent Jenkinson, known affectionately as 'DSJ' or 'Jenks'.
His famed column in Motor Sport was read avidly for the 40 years he was that magazine's Continental Correspondent.
Over the years he also became an integral part of the motor racing scene, being perceived by the drivers and racing hierarchy as 'one of us'.
He had also participated in motor racing at the highest level, first as the athletic passenger of Sidecar World Champion Eric Oliver and later as the famed navigator who pointed Stirling Moss to perhaps the greatest of all motor racing triumphs - the record-shattering victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia round Italy sportscar race.
Jenks, therefore, is a book both by and about one of the most revered motor racing writers, and for motor sports enthusiasts everywhere, and especially his countless thousands of loyal readers, it will reawaken memories of some great sporting occasions and of the unique way in which DSJ went about following and writing about them.
