On Cars by author Jeremy Clarkson

Book: On Cars
Author: Jeremy Clarkson
Publisher: Penguin Books (www.penguin.com )
ISBN 978-0-141-01788-4

Jeremy Clarkson, the author, has written for many newspapers in his career and has had the time to pen down around 10 books. He is also host of the popular automobile show Top Gear on BBC TV.  Jeremy Clarkson has a very unique style of sardonic humor, where he is quick on the uptake to pick out nuances of humor in everyday life situation and politics.  Personally I, thebooksurgeon.blogspot.in , am an avid fan of humor in any form of media. For me I rate Jeremy Clarkson amongst the best humorists. I have bought each and every book written by Jeremy and for me they are ROFLMAO.


On Cars by Jeremy  Clarkson, is a book about Classic machines. The Classic cars stretching back to mid 1980 and all cars and car columns mentioning his name have been referenced. And his views are not just ranting and sarcasm, they are well researched and yet his point is put forward very humorously.

And along the way he talks about: Perils of bicycle ownership, why Australians require bull bars, Why Jesus’s dad would have owned a Nissan Bluebird.

Plus keep in mind that Jeremy is host of show “Top Gear”. His writings are interspersed with comments on Cars, their strong points, their weaknesses and their effect on transport as a whole.

I shall not go on trying to “explain” and review the humor of Jeremy Clarkson for that would kill the joke. All I am going to say is: Buy the Book: On Cars by author Jeremy Clarkson and chuckle every time that you read and re-read this book.
