For 100 years, the world-famous Isle of Man TT has been the supreme challenge in motorcycle road racing. The Island's tortuous 37.73-mile Mountain Course demands the utmost nerve and skill from competitors, while providing a unique and breathtaking spectacle for onlookers.
In this authorised and official centenary book, Manx-born author Mick Duckworth traces the long and rich history of the races since the first Tourist Trophy ws staged in 1907. He not only describes the courageous riders and their fantastic machinery, but looks at the many people behind the scenes, the fans, the TT festival as a whole and its impact on Island life.
