No doubt a certain large new book will attract comment in due course.

Sorry if this is covered elsewhere, but I've just seen two other books that have Mini content.
Pablo Raybould's Bio of Brian Culcheth "Global Travels of a Rally Champion" has information relating to his own Mini and cars he borrowed such as DJB92B.
Tony Ambrose's Autobio (actually published by his son) "Ever the Bridesmaid" has references to several works Minis...and some "interesting" anecdotes such as:
When a young Rauno Aaltonen was behind some rocks with a Yugoslavian woman during a Liege recce.
When John Sprinzell and Erik Carlsson rolled down a staircase fighting over Pat Moss.

David Longshaw's book about his grandfather, Ernest Longshaw owning BJB 77B will be an interesting read? Anyone know when it will be published?
