Summary: A Must-Have
Review: First, lets get the obvious stuff out of the way. The author is a former Isle of Man TT winner, and a moto-journalist of great repute, so the book is not only well written but accurate in terms of technicalities. The printing, full color photos, the hardcover, all that is perfect. With that said...

This is a phenomenal book in every sense. Starting with Vale's childhood, his early age, and all the way into competitive sport and to the present state of conquering the world of Grand Prix racing and being the king of the hill... this book is a must have. The best thing I liked about the book (not counting the fact that it chronicles Rossi's life so well and in so much detail) is that it reflects the true personality of a man. A man who never refuses to stop having fun, never stops trying harder and learning more. A man who wins not because some demons in his head are chasing him, but for the joy of it all.

A remarkable read about a very remarkable man indeed. Valentino Rossi. Perhaps the greatest of them all.
