Stirling Moss by Robert Edwards

Stirling Crauford Moss raced professionally 497 times until his near fatal crash in 1962. At the end of his racing career, he was the most famous Briton - no footballer, jockey, boxer or pop star has approached the national adulation Moss received. In this book Robert Edwards recounts the life of this extraordinarily gifted and competitive man. His tally of wins was proportionately higher than any other driver's, by a wide margin. From his first race in 1948 to his last heady days of the early sixties, his life and career are recalled in great detail. The second half of the book deals with his heroic recovery and re-invention of the colourful life he continues to lead, culminating in his knighthood.
After twenty years as a City and Wall Street analyst and trader, Robert Edwards wrote his first book on a private passion: Aston Martin cars. Since then he has written many books in the field of motor racing including ARCHIE AND THE LISTERS, voted both book of the year and of the decade by the motoring press. He is a regular contributor to MOTOR SPORT and THE DAILY TELEGRAPH.
