Eddie Jordan An Independent Man
By Eddie Jordan

Eddie Jordan has been involved in motor sport at every level, from grass root to the very top in Formula 1. His team, with its vivid yellow colour scheme, became synonymous with a renegade culture that injected fun into the sport at the same time as challenging for the world championship. Jordan was known as the rock'n'roll team - an appropriate title since Eddie Jordan's interests stretch far beyond the high-octane world of grand prix racing. This book is not simply about Jordan's 35 years in motor sport. Racing does provide the central core but, along the way, Jordan's story embraces the loves of his life: sport, music, doing deals, meeting people, having fun - enjoying the 'craic', as they say in his native Ireland. These wonderful anecdotes, told only as Eddie Jordan can, are complemented by his thoughts on football, horse racing, golf, Ireland and its music and values, life beyond F1, his venture into television and his work with sick and disadvantaged children. It is all part of a rich and colourful story which has never been told before.
