Ken Tyrrell's famous Formula 1 racing team will forever be associated with Jackie Stewart and the three World Championship titles they won together. But the Tyrrell story is far bigger than that, embracing nearly 40 action-packed years, from initial forays as an entrant in Formula Junior in 1960 to eventual demise in 1998. Along the way, the team with its larger-than-life proprietor was always universally respected in the world's Formula 1 paddocks, often as the plucky underdog. In compiling this comprehensive history, the author has interviewed dozens of surviving team members - including most of the drivers and many mechanics - to gather their memories and present an energetic, touching, compelling and above all entertaining narrative. Published in the 50th anniversary year of Tyrrell's last championship title, this book will be treasured by all racing enthusiasts.

About Richard Jenkins
Richard Jenkins has been involved in motor racing research for over 20 years. The first outlet for his work was the website oldracingcars.com where his 'Where Are They Now?' section presents several thousand profiles of racing drivers. His first book Richie Ginther: Motor Racing's Free Thinker was published to universal praise in 2020 with many reviewers highlighting his meticulous research and engaging narrative. Remarkably for a debut author this book won the Royal Automobile Club Motoring Book of the Year Award. Following his second biography Mike Spence: Out of the Shadows he has turned his attention to the history of a team rather than a man. He lives in Hertfordshire with his wife and three children.
