Download or read book Ford Focus WRC written by Graham Robson and published by Veloce Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When world rallying introduced a new formula for “World Rally Cars”, Ford seized the opportunity. Malcolm Wilson’s M-Sport organization was contracted to do the job, completed the design in less than a year, and spent the next 12 years campaigning this turbocharged, four-wheel-drive car all round the world. Working from state-of-the-art facilities, M-Sport built 97 Focus WRCs, all of which proved to be worthy of World level action when they won 44 World Championship events. Stellar drivers like Colin McRae, Carlos Sainz, Markko Märtin, Marcus Grönholm and Mikko Hirvonen all added to the mystique of an ultra-professional organization, along with substantial support and sponsorship from the likes of Martini, BP, and the state of Abu Dhabi. By building its in-house technical expertise, M-Sport not only engineered and developed the entire car on behalf of Ford, but gradually took over development of the 300bhp, 2.0-litre, turbocharged engine, and led the design of the complex four-wheel-drive transmissions provided by Xtrac. M-Sport’s reputation exploded to the point that when regulations changed, the company immediately produced a new-generation Fiesta WRC, and kept the winning days rolling.

BBC's Superstars, a multi sports event that attracted top sportsmen in the 70's and 80's, propelled Brian Jacks to fame. But there is a lot more to Brian Jacks's life than Superstars. Born in London's East End he dumfounded medical staff for almost nine years with a problem that meant he had to sit out all sports and could barely walk. His family had almost given hope that he would live a normal life until a chance meeting with renowned specialist who put Jacks on the road to recovery.

Well I wanted to make sure I'd lived a good part of my life first and I think 70 is a good part. Also Philip, my only child, kept nagging me to do it and when he presented me with my first granddaughter, Millie, I decided that the right time had arrived.I think my book will make you laugh and it might make you cry. But if you don't enjoy it I'll give anyone their money back."To many people Jacks is a real hero but he remains humble and is always willing to spend time with people if they need help with a particular problem. In the mindset he's tried to create something that will keep readers turning pages and at the same time inspire and motivate.

Download or read book Yvain written by Chretien de Troyes and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1987-09-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.

Book Synopsis The Panther In My Kitchen by : Brian Blessed
Download or read book The Panther In My Kitchen written by Brian Blessed and published by Sidgwick & Jackson. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian Blessed has a lifelong love of animals and over the years has rescued numerous cats and dogs, horses and ponies, and even a very ungrateful fighting cock. All were characters in their own right, such as Jessie, a dog left languishing for a year at the local RSPCA, who ruled the entire household with a rod of iron, when she wasn’t out harassing the local vicar. Bodger, an abused terrier cross breed, was nursed back to health by Brian and his wife, and lived as if every minute was precious to him. Peppone, a stray cat and notorious thief, was responsible for a crime epidemic in the Bagshot area. And then there was Misty, a soul mate and the first Jack Russell Brian met who didn’t take an instant dislike to him. Over the years Brian has encountered more exotic animals too, from the black panther who had free run of his kitchen and the orangutan he tried to save from captivity to the female gorillas who found him incredibly attractive. Written with all of Brian’s ebullience, The Panther in My Kitchen is a laugh out loud, life affirming book about the joy animals bring and why we should care for them.
