| 489048 | 2006-10-09 04:52:00 | FYO There are two books on Burt's life, the one already mentioned, and one by George Begg, titled Legend Of Speed. Both are very good reads and give different perspective's of his life. The latter gives more detail on his erxploits than the first and I reckon you need to read both. RNY |
