An Excellent Autobiography of Jim Redman MBE,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Autobiography of Jim Redman: Six Times World Motorcycle Champion (Paperback)
I bought this book out of curiousity. I am not much of a sports fan but when I read that Jim Redman was awarded the M.B.E. (Member of the Order of the British Empire), I needed to read about his response to such an honor by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Also, I got a taste of his contributions to sports especially motorcycle racing which is still a popular masculine sport. Jim Redman's biography is rather revealing but not too much. I was surprised by how long it took him to get his M.B.E. because he was busy touring and racing. I found his book to be modest, humble, and rather engaging as well as charming. Good luck to Jim Redman MBE!

A modest Hero,
This review is from: Autobiography of Jim Redman: Six Times World Motorcycle Champion (Paperback)
I have had the pleasure of meeting Jim Redman as well as reading his book. Jim is a modest hero, to whom a 100 mile per hour "parade" is going slowly around the track. Jim's book is a great antidote for an era where people are afraid of taking chances and living their dreams.
