I have grown up watching Richard Hammond (AKA Hamster) from Top Gear with the other two motor head Clarkson and May to Total Wipe out and loving his funny and sarcastic commentary on the show. This book explores his early life from childhood and love for customizing bikes to Music and presenting for the BBC.

I can confirm that this is an easy and entertaining book to read that I could not put down. I would truly recommend this to anyone.

This is not a book to endear you to Richard Hammond. He comes across as obnoxious in many ways, although he is writing from his younger perspective so perhaps we should forgive young hooliganism. Worth reading if you're really a fan but best avoided otherwise.
