Towards the first season in Formula One, Eddie Jordan often feared he was driving headlong towards bankruptcy. Debts and problems were piling up and running costs were always threatening to run out of control. One of his drivers was sent to prison. Another, the future world champion Michael Schumacher, was pinched from his grasp after just one auspicious race.
In 'Eddie Jordan: The Biography', Timothy Collings reveals how this extraordinarily driven man became so successful, why he was determined to reach the top and how he achieved his ambitions. He traces Jordan's life from his Dublin childhood, his happy schooldays and his adolescence to his discovery of motor racing and single-minded efforts to succeed as a Formula One team owner after abandoning a brief career as a driver. It is a tale of humour and humility, pain and the pursuit of perfection, friends and families.
