Tom Bower is known for his exposes of public figures. This book is completely different from other Bower books I have read. He portrays Ecclestone as a visionary, and other actors in F1 as dullards. It seems without Ecclestone F1 would be a backwater of grubby gentlemen racers competing for peanuts. The book suggests that many who became extremely wealthy by hanging on to Ecclestone's coat tails resent the fact that Ecclestone became even richer. I wonder if Bower would change the tone of the book in the light of recent events?
The book is excellent because it covers his whole life so far right from his birth and is give us the chance to understand who the real Bernie is. Excellent read.
