After listening to the riveting tale of the Pescara Grand Prix on the excellent And Colossally That's History podcast, I found a copy of Richard William's book on the race. I can only do it justice with a pot of Yorkshire tea and a couple of biccies to dunk. @thebishf1.bsky.social

A bit of an emotional wreck at the moment, after losing mum 4 years ago and dad in April. The family home is empty and ready for the final stage. I need to be by the sea. I always find it therapeutic. Scarborough was the family holiday from Leeds and holds so many memories.

Just finished this. Originally released in 1946 it is the collective story of six survivors. Originally the New Yorker was going to run the reporters piece over a number of issues but ran it in one edition. This is the 40th anniversary with an added chapter entitled 'Aftermath'. A must read.
