Articoli correlati a James Hunt: The Biography
A tribute to a charismatic motor racing hero, this biography of James Hunt examines in close-up the life and times of one of the last British sporting eccentrics. With his devil-may-care attitude and cavalier approach to living, Hunt endeared himself to the British motor racing public, driving for Lord Hesketh's Formula One team and later, in 1976, for McLaren during his World Championship-winning season. But alongside the triumphant moments came the inevitable darker side - the drugs, the alcohol and the women. The book reveals the truth about his playboy image, and explains Hunt's successful transition from hero of the track and social celebrity to articulate BBC television commentator, breeder of budgies and energetic cyclist. These are the memoirs that Hunt had always planned to write with author Gerald Donaldson before his sudden death of a heart attack, aged 45. This is the official biography, written with the full approval of the family estate.

Dalla quarta di copertina:
Gerald Donaldson is a highly respected Formula One commentator, journalist and author.His books on Gilles Villeneuve and James Hunt have been internationally acclaimed as the best racing driver biographies.
James Hunt's story is an epic tale of a short but turbulent life lived to the limit. Triumphing against all odds to become Formula 1 World Driver's Champion, James sank into a period of decadence and depression... only to be rejuvenated as he found true love for the first time. With that came personal contentment and a renewed zest for living, so that one of the most colourful and controversial figures in Grand Prix racing is best remembered by those close to him as a fun-loving, caring man who had a genuinely uplifting presence – qualities that shine through in this compelling and moving account of his life.
