Dare:
Any members read the new Eddie Jordon bio?

If so give us your thoughts on it

Alianora La Canta:
I read Eddie Jordan's autobiography in the first week it was released and enjoyed it a lot. If you followed Jordan closely through its various triumphs and disasters, you probably won't learn a lot, but the stories are told with good humour and provide a reasonably balanced view of what happened. For those of who who were more interested in other teams/drivers at the time, it is a very good read, particularly if you want to know what stepping up to Formula 1 feels like.

One note of caution, though; if you are the sort of person who hates seeing errors in books, you may want to wait for the second edition. There are several significant errors, the largest of which is the inclusion of an anecdote from 2001 in a 1991 chapter and the funniest is the captioning of long-time staffer Gary Anderson as Gary Alexander.
