Race Against the Odds: The Tragic Success Story of "Miss England II"  
Kevin Desmond

Synopsis
Miss England II, the legendary British powerboat, was the first speedboat to cross the 100mph barrier. As such, it holds a unique place in the history of sport and "Race Against the Odds" is the result of thirty years of research by a powerboat historian who has successfully uncovered not simply a story of a speedboat but a profoundly human saga.
