Book Reviews of Clarkson on Cars

Book Review: Good read but don't expect a revolutionary tome
Summary: 4 Stars

Clarkson is brilliant. That said, this collection of his newspaper columns leaves a few things behind. The pithy nature of a newspaper column is not quite enough to capture Clarkson's true insight. Also, the age of the columns (now in the 15 year-range) is long enough to provide even the most memory gifted with a few head scratchers. Also, Yanks BEWARE!!! Clarkson's prose is not exactly Tom Brokaw easy! Plus the cars he reviews were, for the most part, never available in the USA.

If you love Clarkson's wit, his unapologetic distaste for left-wingers and eco-mentalists, and/or his enthusiasm for the modern auto, you ought to give this book a quick read.
