It is a detailed day-by-day type of account of Stirling's early career, it contains a wealth of anecdotes, race reports, personal information, and is a treasure trove of motor racing history. It runs up to the end of the 1952 season and his 3rd BRDC Gold Star. My copy (1953) is still the best book I have ever read on motor racing and Stirling Moss, indeed one of the best books of any genre I have ever read.
