This volume is about one of motor racing's greatest writers: Denis Sargent Jenkinson, known affectionately as "DSJ2 or "Jenks". His famed column in "Motor Sport" was read avidly for the 40 years he was that magazine's continental correspondent. Over the years he also became an integral part of the motor racing scene, being perceived by the drivers and racing hierarchy as "one of us". He had also participated in motor racing at the highest level, first as the athletic passenger of Sidecar World Champion and later as the famed navigator who pointed Stirling Moss to perhaps the greatest of all motor racing triumphs - the record-shattering victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia round Italy sportscar race.
