Description: If it seems odd to have a biography of a man who is only 22 years old, just think how much this 22-year-old has squeezed into his short life. Lewis Hamilton is a phenomenon. He is the only black man in Formula One after being the only black competitor in karting and lesser formulae. He has more years of racing experience than many champions of the past had at a much greater age. For example, Stirling Moss began racing at 17; by that time Lewis Hamilton was nine years into his racing career from getting his first kart at only eight years old. This book explains the phenomenon that is Lewis Hamilton, from the bright, intelligent kid to the World Championship contender. There will be more books about Lewis, but this is the first - and it is a very good read.
