ON THE ROAD: GROWING UP IN EIGHT JOURNEYS - MY EARLY YEARS is a new
form of autobiography, in which TOP GEAR presenter Richard Hammond
tells the story of his early life through a series of significant
driving episodes. He's a child in the back seat of Dad's car on the
way to the seaside in Weston-Super-Mare. He's on his first bike, a
red one, in Solihull, then on his first motorcycle, a Honda MTX50.
He's at the wheel of his first car (and in the back with his first
girlfriend). He is driving a furniture delivery van as part of his
first job in and around Ripon. Now he is showing off with a friend,
risking everything. ON THE ROAD is an emotional road map in which
each chapter has its own registration number, and its own
distinctive interior. Most importantly, each chapter sets off and
arrives. ON THE ROAD surges on to its destination, reversing or
moving quickly through the gears, reliving the central episodes and
conflicts of Richard's life. Every chapter is a stage in a longer
journey. Although there are precious few road-rage monologues
against four-wheel drivers and men in vests in white vans, Richard
Hammond's readers will quickly recognise the funny self-deprecating
and balanced ease that has made him one of Britain's best-loved
writers and television presenters.
