Book review: Jan/Feb 2011

Croz – Larrikin Biker – Graeme Crosby

From the moment Kiwi Graeme Crosby arrived in the UK in 1979 he became an instant fans’ favourite, with his hard charging style on the high bar Moriwaki.

In just four years Croz went from unknown to two times World Champion and added TT, Imola 200, Daytona 200, and Suzuka 8 Hour wins to his impressive CV.

At long last the unassuming Croz has recorded his rise to fame, and the grounding on the street circuits of New Zealand that prepared him to take on Europe and the rest of the world.

A great read, Croz – Larrikin Biker, published by Harper Collins, is impossible to put down. For details on how to obtain a copy visit www.harpercollins.co.nz
 

Travelling Marshals – David Wright

This year celebrates 75 years since travelling marshals were used for the first time on the TT Mountain Course, and to celebrate the occasion David Wright has updated his book, Travelling Marshals at the Isle of Man Tourist Trophy and Manx Grand Prix.
Within the 270 pages are some great tales from the TT and Manx Grand Prix,
all well illustrated with over 250 photographs.

The book, which is a must for Isle of Man enthusiasts, cost £19.99. Contact David on davidwright@manx.net to get your copy.
