His best book July 3, 2008
Without a doubt his best book.

he takes a look at some of the most beautifull machines invented (spitfire's, concorde, riva speedboats) and explains in humour and reverence a short history of the machine and the reason he likes it's soul.

A great read with some stunning pictues.

Interesting read into machines history May 11, 2008
Once again Clarkson brings his many fans another brilliant book much in the vein of Karl Pilkington's "Happyslapped by a Jellyfish." However, unlike the mindless jabber that Karl Dilkington comes up with, this book offers readers some real education that doesn't include pillow men or three legged jugglers.

No regrets....At all February 15, 2008
This book is simply brilliant. It re-ignited my lust for a Riva speedboat (I could never afford to own one) and it really sobered me up with his very astute thoughts about Concorde. Even if you are not into machinery, Clarkson's take on it all will ignite a spark in you that will allow you to begin to understand why so many of us love fast cars, fast aircraft, and beautiful bridges. Perhaps why some of us revel in man's ability to construct huge awesome things like aircraft carriers. Of course the Riva is perhaps the epitome of this. When I see one now I just stand in awe and almost drool. They are just so beautiful. Is this book Clarkson's best ever? Quite possibly.Perhaps you should read it to find out what all the fuss is about.If you do you won't regret it.

Clarkson being his usual self... December 28, 2007
I am a big fan of Jeremy Clarkson's writing, either in the newspaper or in his books... He has the most hilarious way with words and, sometimes, I find it hard to breathe from laughing at his occasional rants...

This book is pretty much about the things that Jeremy feels have exceeded engineering and are the most breathtaking inventions he's ever seen... It holds much information on each subject he encounters, and is considerably laced with wit and humour that you can only expect from Clarkson...

For me, it is a brilliant, informative read and I would definately recommend it to everyone... Except if you hate jeans...

Another Clarkson Giggle October 24, 2007
Once again if you enjoy Clarkson and his style you will enjoy this book. I enjoy nice cars and motorbikes but I would say my machinery knowledge is very, very limited. But still Clarkson hit the right note with me and I found he realy brought them to life for me, whether it was a U-boat or an airship. Throughly enjoyable read.
