That Was Close

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

The perfect book for motor enthusiasts, thrill seekers and anyone who loves a good yarn.

'Fear and I started our long relationship at a very early age, and every time we met, I think we worked together to thicken my skin a little.'
As a veteran of the famous (some would say infamous) Targa Tasmania Rally, Philip Blake has had plenty of brushes with death, but even the bravest and most foolhardy of rev-heads would be shocked by his record.
In short, Philip Blake should not be alive. He has fallen off a mountain, been blown out of bed by a bomb and had far too many close shaves on the road - and that's before you even get to Targa Tasmania.
In this wickedly funny book, this master storyteller races through a life overflowing with thrills.
