Author Description

In his easy style, Duke reveals what drove him in the pursuit of perfection and ultimately to the victor's laurels. He recounts his early years as an army dispatch rider, through his BSA years, his first Isle of Man wins on a Norton, and his even more successful years with Cilera. He continues on with his Manx triumphs, the key to racing Aston Martins, and his return to his first love, the motorcycle Grand Prix circuit. Duke also describes his intense involvement in the technical development of motorcycles.
