Read by Richard Hammond

The wry, honest and often hilarious chronicles of a very brave and clever
TV presenter, Arctic Explorer and general drawer of the Short Straw.

Moving quickly on from the devastating crash that nearly killed him he ranges
widely over his life and times: a visit to Glastonbury with James May reminds
of him of his early years of playing in a band and how and why he never quite
made it as a rock star; the stunts and other perils that come his way like
the TopGear North Pole race (why is it Richard who is out in the howling
elements in a dog sled whilst the others are in the heated cab of an all-
terrain vehicle?), Africa where he falls in love with and repatriates a stray
car, and the US (once to be chased by Rednecks in middle America, the other
in pursuit of his mad hero Evel Knievel); his passion for cars, what he owns
and why and although he loves his wife why it is a toss-up whether he says
hello to the wife or the cars first. Balancing home and family with a crazy,
peripatetic working life (or not, sometimes), the hamster is well and truly
back on the wheel.
