| Synopsis: |
This automotive memoir follows a life spent nursing an obsession with cars. With occasional play in the garage of the Ford estate and an excursion to see Buckminster Fuller's three-wheeled Dymaxion among his earliest memories, John Lumley's enduring love of cars is no surprise. From those childhood adventures followed a lifetime spent elbow-deep in engines - Nashes, Hupmobiles, Mercurys, Citroens, Spitfires, Volkswagens, Lagondas, Siddeleys, Bentleys and more, many of them pictured. Though his career was devoted to loftier pursuits, the grease beneath his nails perhaps best sums up Lumley's lifelong love. |
