A boy from the country with big plans and even bigger dreams leaves an easy-going life at school to find that things don't always come easy, just because you think you have a plan…
The plan is to get out of here and head to London, Rome or Monaco and start living the high life, all the while driving Formula One.
The first job pays less than $16 per week, but something better will turn up, won't it?
Changing jobs more times than he can count doesn't seem to be helping. Young women become the main focus, but the dreams are still there. There is still time to become a professional driver, if only he can survive.
This is the tale of a constant, almost obsessive quest for a bigger income and a better position in the world, while trying to fulfil those dreams, with plenty of adventure along the way.

A blast of nostalgia
This book is a raw tale of one man's travels through 70 years of a nostalgic period of Australian timeline. Throughout his pursuit of something better he often felt that he hadn't quite made it but he is surprised to find in his recollections that his so called 'ordinary life' often held extraordinary elements with encounters of fascinating events, situations and interesting people which made his life's story not-at-all ordinary. James, teaches that perhaps this could be true of all of us if only we could take the time to review our lives in a positive light and not let the achievement of ambitions or unjustified expectations be the scoreboard of a worthwhile life.
