Auto-Biography: From Car Factories to Kars by Lawrence Hobbs is a delightful collection of stories centred around over 50 vehicles that have played a role in the author’s life. While most are his own cars, some belonged to friends, family, and rental companies.
This book offers a refreshingly unique perspective, straying from the typical celebrity memoir focused on high-end sports cars. Instead, Hobbs shares relatable tales that transport readers on a nostalgic journey through the humble yet cherished automobiles that have shaped his experiences.
With charming illustrations accompanying the narratives, this book promises an engaging and heartwarming read for anyone who has ever formed a connection with their trusty set of wheels.
