Bernie: The Biography of Bernie Ecclestone

by SusanWatkins (Author)

Synopsis

This title includes a foreword by Sir Frank Williams. Bernie Ecclestone is best-known as the architect and figurehead of modern F1, but he has been a constant and often controversial presence in both F1 and British public life since the 1970s. In this acclaimed biography, now available in paperback, Susan Watkins analyses in detail his rise to prominence, from his early entrepreneurial exploits as a schoolboy to his position today as a peerless businessman and multi-billionaire. All aspects of his business and racing exploits are examined, and contrasted with intimate insight into his personal life.
