I've just read Joe Saward's article at insidef1 from September 2000 (don't ask, I've been hibernating). The story has really tickled my fancy and I was wondering if there was a book about him. Not just the racing bit, although that part of his life seems to have been quite interesting on and off the track, but also his work with SOE. As an afterthought, is it really possible to earn a living "breeding Aberdeen terriers"?
Cheers

In the same vein also in Classic and Sportscar, don't remember when. When I'll know it, I will edit this reply...
