Tis a great read that mark, thoroughly enjoyed it. A classic of the genre.
Read Chrissie Wellington's book. Really good.
To be honest, I wouldn't start from there...Originally Posted by markmc
Got that for Christmas last year, excellent (and a bit frightening) book.
This year's Christmas gift books are the new Bradley Wiggins one, a Star Wars origami manual (hugely hard!) and Gok Wan's Chinese cookbook.

War Of The Worlds, freebie ebook.
