Stirling Moss: The Authorised Biography

by RobertEdwards (Author)

Synopsis

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 celebrity has approached the national adulation that Moss received. In this book, Robert Edwards wonderfully recounts the life of this extraordinarily gifted and competitive man. His tally of wins was proportionally higher than any other driver's, ever, by a wide margin. From his first race in 1948 to his last heady days of the early sixties and beyond, his life and career are recalled in great detail, revealing many amazing stories never told before.
