Good, the Mad and the Ugly ... Not to Mention Jeremy Clarkson - The Golden Years of Motoring Journalism?

This book recalls the golden age (in the author's view) of motoring journalism, during the last two decades of the 20th century, with additional material from before and after. Although the book is about cars it should amuse, irritate or even inform people who are not interested in cars at all.
