Norman Burr's biography of Duckworth covers all aspects of his life, beginning in his childhood and provides a valuable insight to anyone looking to learn more about one of Britains most incredible 20th Century engineers. The book throughly outlines Cosworth under Duckworths chairmanship, and includes interviews from his family and friends to ensure that the reader received a full insight into his life. The biography also features may photographs, in both colour and black and white, which assists Burr's careful detailing of Duckworths life. For anyone who enjoys the history of, or is interested in Formula 1, Burr;s biography of Duckworth is a must read. Hagerty Classic Cars Newsletter.
