"I have always believe in telling the truth.",
By Alan Wong (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Life In The Fast Lane (Paperback)
If you own Christopher Hilton's "Alain Prost", you probably won't find many things new in this autobiography. But the fact that everything is told by the 4-time world champion himself puts readers in the best position to see why he did this and why he did that. You will find yourself racing in Alain's cockpit, and learning much from his reasoning.Alain Prost is never as good a writer as Christopher Hilton, who has been a journalist for years. But this book, translated from Prost's original French version, does not come with long and artistic narration and brings readers right to the "fast lane". You will find it even more readable. You'll know Prost's history better by reading Christopher's book. But only by reading this autobiography will you know Alain Prost better. This book starts with an interesting introduction of his childhood before moving to Prost's racing career from kart racing to his record-scoring season in 1988. It ends with a rather strange chapter stating the author's desire for privacy. The great thing is that it comes with a handsome photo of Prost skiing. An additional chapter is added to include the 1989 season and Prost's 6th Brazilian GP victory in a Ferrari in 1990. The best thing of the whole book, however, is that it contains excellent photos of Prost, and many good ones in his childhood. Lovely. You can't resist.
