Can You Make This Thing Go Faster?

Summary

The hilarious new collection of stories and observations from Jeremy Clarkson - setting our off-kilter world to rights with thigh-slapping wit once again.

Who is that tractor-driving Gentleman Farmer?
Has Jeremy turned into a horny-handed son of the soil?

These and other perplexing questions may or may not be answered in the latest volume of Clarkson's utterly unbiased musings on life, the universe and everything in between (except cars - this isn't one of his four-wheel drive books).

Inside you'll also discover why:
· Bathing in crude oil isn't for everyone
· People who go fishing hate their kids
· Noise-cancelling headphones will never silence James May
· The rambler who stole his marrow is in for it

Full of fact-checked opinions and ideas so good they're no longer following the science but chasing it up a tree, Can You Make This Thing Go Faster? is one hundred per cent guaranteed Clarkson . . .

Praise for Clarkson:

'Brilliant . . . laugh-out-loud'
Daily Telegraph

'Outrageously funny . . . will have you in stitches'
Time Out

'Very funny . . . I cracked up laughing on the tube'
Evening Standard
